the Pope is being more politician than religious. why not he also mention the injustice of Christians by occupying other countries? where does the oil of Iraq goes.
his statement is misguided, Islam is peaceful with those who are peaceful with it. why they even insult Islam for, first Muhammad cartoon, then the Pope himself? you don't see Muslims insult Jesus. and he doesn't know much about Muhammad. Muhammad who came as mercy to the humanity, but many people don't know.
anyway, i forgive the man (Pope) because of his age, and his ignorant of Islam.

Full text for the Pope's speech: http://msnbc.msn.com/id/14848884/
The statement that is most aired is something like: "Tell me what Mohammad did that was different, and I'll show you a world of violence and hate" or something like that from a dialog a few centuries ago. The whole speech looked like it was mainly about tolerance and peace.

(AP) "In a speech, the Pope referred to criticism of the Prophet Mohammad by 14th century Byzantine Emperor Manuel II Palaeologus, who said everything Mohammad brought was evil ..." He referenced the emperor and was in agreement, not criticism.
not true, ridiculous to argue it.

It was the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. These Muslim extremists just want something to cry about. They will learn soon how to read a Bible.
