The Pope could be giving a three hour oration on what a jerk that guy named Will on Yahoo Answers is and I'd probably never even know.
Do a lot of Muslims follow news stories about the Pope religiously? Or is there some Islamic talk-radio demagogue stirring up the Muslims?

Milos K: I have ears too. But I don't bother listening to the Pope. Why would so many Muslims all over the world be listening to this speech? Why would a Muslim care what the Pope thinks?

AD: Why is asking why hundreds and hundres of millions of Muslims listening intently to the Pope ridiculous? You know that the Pope isn't an Islamic leader, right?

whynotask doNAZI: If it is such a dumb question, why couldn't you answer it? Do you sit around listening to speeches given by the pope to see if he slanders some group you happen to be a member of?

My Dear Brother, Will
1-Muslims arent just the people who live in middle east!
2- There are muslims in UK, USA and the whole world!
3-Muslims do watch T.V Check CNN, BBC by radio, TV, internet!
4-they Know everything just the way u know everything!
5- About what the pope said; it is very shameful to say these statements about islam from a well educated person who is the father of all christians in the world...and using misleading and untrue things about islam....
6- It has appeared that the pope has not read quite well...in fact the previous pope John paul was more friendly with muslims than this one!!
7-None of what this pope said is true ...all what he said is not true!
8- i am a Muslim and i have read what the pope said litrally on the BBC and CNN on the net!!
9-i Understand if he mistakenly says these words about islam....or he might be affected with other opinions against islam!
10-If anyone really wants to know about true islam can see this links!!..
11-islam is not terrorism...and who ever does terror action is not a muslim anymore.......because islam says" PROTECT NON-MUSLIMS FROM HARM"......and prophet mohammed said" Who ever harms a non Muslim would be harming me and i would be his opponent in judgement day".....Quran says" No Use of force in religion",.....and " who wants to belive can belive and who wantsto desblieve can disbelive"....
12-Thank you...and peace be upon you!

I think Will probably isn't as popular as Islam is right now. I think you're ridiculous.

Extremist Christians purposely stir them up, they replaced the cartoons with more offensive ones for this reason
