Pope Francis Prays In Mosque

Pope Francis today took part in a Muslim prayer with the Grand Mufti of Istanbul on his second leg of his three day visit to Turkey.

Pope Francis was alongside theGrand Mufti side to side today and clasped his hands for a two minute silent prayer in the 17th-century Sultan Ahmet mosque, aiming to show respect for Islam and encourage stronger ties between the two faiths.

Rainer’s Time Longevity Equation T=√D2x M x 1/E Rainer’s Time Longevity Equation states that an organism’s life span i...
