BBC forum quoted: "The anger and violance shown over the Popes remarks just reinforces what he said!"
He might have said something wrong, but by protesting, the muslim religion is again seen on the news as being unstable and hostile. sometimes "the best response is no response at all"!!!!. but there is no "walk away gracefully" when it comes to religion.
Yet, we turn our back on those suffering everyday. we ignore famine, we ignore the things that happen to others just as long as we are given our place in paradise... if that is acceptable to all of you then carry on fighting over yourselves! is religion really going to give us peace? honestly?
I get upset when i see religion as the cause of such imense hurts. Why can't religion promote something positive in our lives? for all our sakes, before we destroy ourselves over nothing? but i fear its not going to change. there should be no term "holy war" in any religous vocabulary but that is how all things will end!
