Become a Promoter of Saint John Bosco: saintjohnbosco...
Anyone who’s read “The Forty Dreams of St. John Bosco,” is familiar with his phrase, “I stayed up late writing.” Well, what did he write? Hardly anyone has heard of the prodigious amounts of wonderful literature penned by him. For instance, did you know that he wrote about Islam (or Mohammedanism as they called it back then)? In his 1853 work, “The Catholic Instructed in His Religion,” he teaches doctrine through telling the story of a father having conversation with his son about a variety of Catholic topics. We’ll now hear how he sums up Islam in this episode.
Saint John Bosco had no illusions regarding the evil of false religions and the immense damage they do. He knew that there was no reconciliation between error and truth and taught that to his boys with affection and charity. Thus, he showed the contrast between truly Catholic behavior and the ramblings of a charlatan.
