Hahahahahaha! Of course not. As usual, it's always one-way with Muslims.

Suddenly Catholics have turned Unitarian?

I know very little about religion but I do know that the Church reserves
mass for itself and it cannot be performed by outsiders.

For what it's worth, the church (Anglican / Episcopalian) whose hall
my Scout group used some 40+ years ago has been sold to a Muslim group
which converted it into a mosque.

One of the things I most treasure about retirement is that I no longer
have to drive past it daily. Before they completed the transfer they
held a "un-dedication" service to undo the "dedication of this church
to the glory of God".

I probably wouldn't mind if I hadn't spent several hundred hours there
in my teens.

As for Catholics when we got married my wife and I did not get married
in the church she had grown up in as I wasn't Catholic and thus
couldn't get married at the altar there. By that time she was
non-observant so she didn't mind.
