The pope was intentionally slapping Islam in the face to illustrate that the interfaith philosophy of his predecessor was at an end and there was a new sheriff in the Vatican.
Right or wrong is irrelevant, he got his point across.

I have to say, there is so much violence from the Muslim world that the Pope is correct. Arab muslims as a group preach intollerance and hatred. They respond to the Pope by proving his point. I don't see how the Pope can appologize after they kill a nun for what he says. In a way, it is like a prophecy fulfilling itself.

Any remember, boys and girls, THESE are the people who WANT to dominate the WORLD! Imagine the President, Congress, Army, Navy, Police and Judges ALL like them everywhere in the World! Worse, imagine jailers and exeuctioners just like them! Golly, the last time I saw anything like that was in 1930 at a rally of the NAtional Socialst Party in Germany! Maybe TV stations need to start screeing Leni Reifenstahl's film "Triumph of the Will" on a regular basis!

We can't say either of them is right or wrong.. The only thing is, muslims are sensitive yet many people who hate muslims always try to fish muslims to do something bad.. And I'm not saying that the pope is the one who hate muslims.. There must be someone (I think) non-muslim that tell those muslims to do something bad..

Because that is what fundamentalist Muslims do. It's a shame that a minority sully the name of the majority, but it's a fact.

The truth is that Islam is a religion that preaches violence against non-Muslims, so their reaction was entirely to be expected.
Direct quotes for the Koran:-
"Make war on the unbelievers and the hypocrites and deal rigorously with them. Hell shall be their home: an evil fate"
"Believers, take neither the Jews nor the Christians for your friends"
Muslims are also encouraged in the Koran to fight against non-Muslims "until they pay tribute out of hand and are utterly subdued"
So much for the peaceful religion of Islam which many claim means "peace" but which actually means "submission". Muslims who convert to Christianity are punished by being put to death under Sharia Law and Christians in many predominantly Islamic countries are under frequent attack for their beliefs.

Sorry, he's right. I hate to ever admit the Pope is right, being an adamant protestant, but right Benny is!

those that promote and execute violence in the name of Allah are of Satan's seed they are not Muslim,these seeds of devils obviously dont understand the nature of the god that they pretend to worship,do they not understand that god alone reaps vengence and he is more than capable of taking away the existence of those he deems to be infidel.islam understood in it correct context takes great steps to stop weak minded people from using his name to kill.is it not obvious that any soul that kills will them self be killed but from the inside out ,beware all religions that god is not pleased ,he is an angry god lip service alone will not save you

Muslims killed innocents and burned churches for only a speech, there is something terribly wrong with Islam.

You are right. When someone says something negative about you, you prove them wrong, not enforce their opinion.
