DAR AL HARB - U.S.A. - ILLINOIS: "A GIFT OF GOD TO A SICK, SICK WORLD" = LOUIS FARRAKHAN, ACCORDING TO PLEGER

Nation of Islam's Farrakhan speaks at Chicago Catholic church

CHICAGO: Former Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan told a predominantly black Catholic church that people who believe in God need not be divided, delivering a message of religious unity that has marked his recent addresses.

Speaking with a strong voice and gesturing firmly from the pulpit as he addressed a crowd of about 1,100 at St. Sabina Catholic Church, the black Muslim leader looked and sounded little like a man recovering from illness.

"I feel very honored to stand in this place," he said. "I feel very honored by the media being struck by my being in a Catholic church with a white pastor."

St. Sabina's Rev. Michael L. Pfleger told his congregation that Farrakhan's presence at the church is "only strange to people who don't know Minister Louis Farrakhan."

"He's spoken here many times and St. Sabina is a home for Louis Farrakhan," said Pfleger, who called Farrakhan "a gift from God to a sick, sick world."

Pfleger is a leftist nut and has been for many years...
