Pope Benedict XVI rebuked his fellow Germans and other Western societies this Sunday, saying they often shut their ears to the Christian message. "Put simply, we are no longer able to hear God — there are too many different frequencies filling our ears."
Is the Pope just saying his version of organised religion (Christianity) is the right one, and all of the other religions (frequencies) have got it wrong?

Sure seems like it. But who listens to the pope?

I trust the Holy Father Pope Benedict.
When God quietly speaks, some people are too busy sinning to hear what he has to say.
God bless his Pope.

It's good to ask questions where they will return the answers you want. Too bad you are so ignorant and misinformed. I doubt he is say that at all. He is saying there are too many distractions from the religious way.
Just because you do not agree with him does not always make him wrong. It is like the socially retarded geeks that blame Bush for everything.

The Pope never rants. He is highly intelligent and well-educated and says exactly what needs to be said. Obviously he believes that Catholicism is right or he wouldn't be Pope, just as I believe it is right or I wouldn't be Catholic.

He means what he says. We have tuned God out overall and need to learn to listen to Him. "Be still and know.."
