I don't know either, but gleaning from the other answers I would say, Any one has the right to agree to disagree on any mater.
that is his prerogative.
But he should stick to his sermons to his own people...
stay out of the kitchen of politics...if it gets to hot their.
Bashing other people though, is not right. if his remarks
were that bad.

Yes Pope should apologize because he said that Islam teaches only violence but he did not know that Islam means PEACE and he also failed to realize what his Bible said "All who would not seek the LORD, the God of Israel, were to be put to DEATH, whether small or great, man or woman. (NIV Bible, 2 Chronicles 15:13)" "Now kill all the boys [innocent kids]. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man. (Numbers 31:17-18)". Now tell me which religion promotes violence.
He also said that Islam was spread through sword.Its famous answer is given by the noted historian De Lacy O’Leary in the book “Islam at the cross road” (Page 8):
“History makes it clear however, that the legend of fanatical Muslims sweeping
through the world and forcing Islam at the point of the sword upon conquered races
is one of the most fantastically absurd myth that historians have ever repeated.”
Tell me which Islamic Sword had gone to Indonesia,which has highest number of Muslims, which sword had gone to East Coast of Africa. Which sword forced Michael Jackson,Cassius Clay,Mike Tyson,Cat Stevens and many other Christion people to accept Islam.Do you know the fastest growing religion in Europe and America is Islam, which sword is focing them.But it is well known that the Christian missionaries are spreading Cristianity by giving money to poor people.
Now you can make statement that Pope should apologize or not.

The Muslims are purposely taking it out of context as an excuse to be offended, as usual. Its getting very old.

He quoted someone from the past who said Islam wanted to spread its religion by the sword.
The Pope was right.

He gave this speech that sounded like he was for attacking the Islam religion, and the Muslims want him to apologize
