Pope Francis Orders Vatican To Create First Ever Art Exhibition To Promote Chrislam
Francis carrying on Rick Warren’s work with Chrislam
“And
I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people,
that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her
plagues.” Revelation 18:4
Pope Francis can best be described as a man on a mission. That
mission seems to be the unification of the Vatican’s Roman Catholic
system with Islam. This demonic hybrid is what is more commonly known as
Chrislam. Francis is building on the already impressive body of work in
this field started by apostate Emergent Church preacher Rick Warren.
German website DW reports that for the first time ever, the Vatican is staging an unusual exhibition in the Emirate of Shajah. The show is seen as a sign of openness and cooperation between religions.
“It is the first collaboration of the Vatican with an Arab country,” said al-Khamis. Indeed, the exhibition is one-of-a-kind – not only because it presents excellent artworks but also because it furthers dialogue between Christians and Muslims.

The fact that Rome is lending its works for the first time is an act of diplomacy in line with Pope Francis’s current policies. While
Pope Benedict XVI had distanced himself from other religions, his
successor is pursuing a different policy. In October last year, during a
speech for the sponsors of the Ethnological Museum, Pope Francis pointed out the unifying role of culture in religious, social and moral matters.
In the exhibition catalog, the Vatican writes
that it will treat the Islamic objects “with the same amount of respect
as the Leonardos, Raffaels and Michaelangelos.” Fittingly, the title of the exhibition is “So that you may know each other.” which is actually a verse from the Koran
in response to the question of why people are so different. Mutual
understanding between Christians and Muslims is exactly what the
exhibition aims at.
