The Pope quoted an eariler pope and saying " show me what Mohammed brought that was new and there you'll find only things evil and inhumane". and that is so true, they pray to a stone 5 times a day, in mecca in the temple of Kabba? I'm a Christian do I have to face a cross ? no!! I wear a cross as a disply of my faith I'm proud to be a christian, the jews go to the waling wall not to worship it, but to show respect for the lords temple. But these Muslims claim to worship the same god we do they dont, I worship the god of israel, not the God of Arabia. and my God says not to have Idol's aka stone worship. I dont think these Muslims are stupid enough to mess with a Catholic Pope I believe they still remember the Crusades. The very FIRST crusade was successful, as the Crusaders captured Jersulem, but over time they made peace with theses pagan and even let them come back to jersulem as citizens of the Crusader Kingdom, thus placing a cruse on the following Crusades

First off, the Pope quoted a 14th Century Byzantine emperor not another. Secondly, your argument seems rather foolish. For example, in Christianity we have the Via Dolorosa in which reverence for the Christ is demonstrated by ritual reenactment. The Kaaba is not a temple, nor is it an idol. It is a symbol, a part of a symbolic geography. Henri Corbin discusses the concept of "True North" with Mecca and the Kaaba being examples of this.

You know what?? People like you really need to get your facts straight before submitting things like this! If you must know, all muslims are against the worshipping of objects!! We do not worship the black stone!! The Kaaba, is only an indication to our direction of prayer! In Islam, it is about the intentions people have whilst doing things! When we pray, our intentions are to worship Allah, and only Him. Please, don't start writing a whole load of rubbish about Islam because it only makes you look stupid!
If you actually knew the few simple facts of Islam, you wouldve known how big of a fool you've just made of yourself!
And what do you know, the pope apologised!! STUPID!

Muslims are not pagans to start with they believe in most of the same things as Christians do except for the name of GOD and Messiah. the also beleive in Jesus the same way that the Jewish people do at present.
Yes they remember the crusaders. that called them infadels and heathens.and killed and tortured them to try and get them to convert. How very christian to let people deside for themselves wich religious path the want to follow under threat of death.
If you want to be tecnacal then you have to take down all of your crosses and other icons as you are diobeying GODS law about worshiping idols. and stop wearing crosses as that is ofensive to other religions.

Are you INSANE? The Pope has already appologized, and on top of that Muslims worship the same God that you Christians worship, and I am not talking about Jesus. I am talking about his Father.

properly, Ulfsark, allecat and a pair of others have it appropriate. As on your comments with reference to the Pope and WWII, you prepare which you be attentive to little approximately that era and his place. actual, you prepare which you by no potential stricken to make certain! So I won't waste my time on that area. As for helping relatively adverse human beings and events, you will do properly to look on the different pagans and Atheists in historic past. try as you will, you won't have the ability to blame Christians for something completed till now with reference to the middle of the 400s whilst Christianity grew to become the State Church of Rome. each and all of the atrocities of the Early Romans, Mongols and so on, have been all completed via NON-Christians and for the main area, PAGANS! additionally, a goodly bunch of issues in a while additionally! i observed an outstanding variety of Atheists claiming to be "pagan" now-a-days additionally... properly... now we are in a position to upload Pol Pot, Stalin, Lenin, Castro, Mao and the leaders of maximum of Easter Europe from 1945 till the Iron Curtain fell. in my view, i do unlike this pope, and extremely, extremely hated the single till now, yet I refuse to lie approximately him however.

I agree with you in somethings but not in others. No matter what people say, we are in a holly war. The followers of Mohammad or at least their religious leaders want the whole world to be his followers also. Mohammad did it with a sword, his followers use bombs strapped to themselves or terrorist attacks again the innocents of the world, like kids and women. To a Christian, to compare Mohammad to Christ is blasphemy. He is not even close. Do we rant and blow things up, of course not. Christ told us not too. I am not a Catholic, but am a student of history and no matter what, the truth is the truth.
