Detroit Archbishop in a mosque

June 6, 2026, was the grand opening of the Imam Al-Hasanain mosque and Islamic Institute of America in Dearborn Heights, Michigan. Invited was Archbishop of Detroit Edward Weisenburger, above, who gave a brief speech, the main part of which follows.

“There is nowhere that I feel greater honor, fraternity and kindness, and from the moment I drove onto this beautiful property today, I very fully felt the sense of the divine presence,” Weisenburger declared.

“We are members of the same human family. All churches, all mosques, all synagogues, all places where God reaches out and touches with his finger are sacred. This is a truly wonderful and sacred place, a place that will bring all of humanity, I believe, into a deeper communion with our ‘one god.'”

Now then, regarding those who affirm that all religions are equal and lead to God, Pope Pius IX taught the following:

"Also perverse is the shocking theory that it makes no difference to which religion one belongs, a theory which is greatly at variance even with reason. By means of this theory, those crafty men remove all distinction between virtue and vice, truth and error, honorable and vile action. They pretend that men can gain eternal salvation by the practice of any religion, as if there could ever be any sharing between justice and iniquity, any collaboration between light and darkness, or any agreement between Christ and Belial." (Encyclical Qui pluribus, November 9, 1846)

Comparing the two texts we ask: Is Arch. Wiesenberger still Catholic? Are those in higher ranks of the Church who have done the same thing he did still Catholics?
