Commonweal editorial on NY Islamic Center
Published by johnpmcginty
A native of the North Shore of Boston, I currently live in Worcester County, Massachusetts. I worked at Boston College as the Acting Director of The Church in the 21st Century Center until August, 2010 and served until November 2016 as Canon for Formation, and Dean of the George Mercer Jr. School of Theology of the Diocese of Long Island. I was happy to serve as Rector at the Church of Saint Anselm of Canterbury in Shoreham, New York from late 2016 to early 2020. I began service as Rector of The Church of Saint Matthew in the city of Worcester on the first day of the fateful month of 2020. View all posts by johnpmcginty

I’m in total agreement with this article!
The fact that Catholics feel that the world would be a better place if more people were Catholic and Muslims feel that it would be better if more people were Muslim does not need to be a source of conflict. It simply means that we must compete in doing good and thereby honor God/Allah the Merciful and Compassionate.
