Big, big news from Hot Air:
Secret negotiations are taking place between the Vatican and Saudi Arabia to allow Christian churches in the strictly Muslim country, reports the Italian daily, La Stampa.
The Vatican is negotiating with Saudi Arabia for “authorisation to build Catholic churches,” says archbishop Mounged El-Hachem, papal nuncio of Kuwait, Qatar, Yemen, Bahrein and the United Arab Emirates.
According to La Stampa, the secret talks, favoured by Saudi King Abdullah, have been taking place for several weeks and are considered an unprecedented for the Catholic church…
The Italian newspaper claimed on Monday that up to 900,000 Catholics live in Saudi Arabia, all of them expatriate workers.
Hot Air askes, "Does this mean Bibles will be legal in the Kingdom, or is that simply far too dangerous a reform? Exit question two: What’s the connection between this and the church that just opened in Qatar? I wonder if Benedict pressed to have that one built first knowing there’d be less resistance, so that he could wave it at the Saudis as a precedent."
I say: That ought to set us up nicely for the destruction of the seven hilled city.

Since Umar heard Muhammad say that only Islam should be in Arabia, I don't believe this.
If this IS true, they are handing to the MB and and the other freaks the key to overthrowing the kingdom, unless the Al Saud are ready willing AND ABLE to slaughter any and all who stand int heir way.
Readya nd willing maybe...able ..no way
Yeah, it's hard for me to believe too, Epa.
If it is true, then we can expect that the terms the Saudis will demand will be the complete humiliation of Christianity. Even Andres Serrano will blush.
