hi,
Even though I am not a Moslem,christian. Do you think what pope has commented is correct. Every religion has their own sentiments. Not all the moslems are terrorists. I have many decent moslem friends who care for humans. A hand full of religious moslem terrorist make proverty ridden moslems to terrorist. It is the society to take care of the under previlaged moslems. ( but take care when you are helping them ).

My comment for the Pope is "Open mouth insert foot!"

The pope did not say that all muslims are terrorists. The pope did not say that Islam should not be allowed to have its own sentiments. The pope did not say that muslims do not care for humans. The pope did not imply that the handful of muslim terrorists speak for the entire creed.
The pope quoted 1000 year old criticism of Mohammed saying that some of the scripture in Islam endorsed the use of violence.
A number of people have grabbed the pope's comments and used them to incite anger in millions. This is irresponsible and far more damaging than anything the pope was trying to say. And unfortunately it's working.
I am not a fan of the pope or the catholic church, but in this case they are getting a seriously bad rap.

I refuse to lump all Moslems together.
They are people just like any body else.
You have the good ones, and the bad ones.
The Pope was stating history in a speech.
The non-radical Moslems are making themselves look bad by rioting over something without investigation.
I am a Christian.
I have heard so many insults, and accusations, blasphemy against Christ.
He endured it all of the way to the cross, And then said, "Father forgive them for they know not what they do".
I do feel something when my God is maligned, but I know he does not need my protection.
He says, "Vengeance is mine saith the lord, I shall recompense".
In other words, it is God that I get strength from, not the other way around.
what makes the Moslem's think they need to protect God?
That looks like a question, but it is not, I needed to put the punctuation in the right place.

once again the catholic church has spoken... the same church that is the all time leader in facilitating violence and warmongering so even though this pope seems to have some wisdom and more than half a brain he is still the freaking pope and should just go to hell. The muslims are a very angry mob and will flip out now matter what is said and no matter who says it.

The pope quoted a dude from the 14th century. Right or wrong it's now become unsafe to even quote other people. Fanatics of all kinds cause unrest and from what I see they are hurting themselves at the same time. World opinion can be a mighty strong force. That's what the fanatics and yes the U.S. are facing right now.

The Pope's comments are not correct, because the Pope is supposed to be the example for all the Christians, he should be peace leader, and teach them how to tolerate all religions,
Muslims are peaceful people if you compare the number of the extremists to the number of Muslims in the world you can see that the extremists are very few, the others just want to be left alone to live in peace, but the Muslims are very touchy when it comes to their religion, they do not like to be commented at as terrorists or violent because they are not, religion is something sacred, it is what they believe so why not leave them is peace?

What the Pope quoted still remain a part of the Muslim belief, i.e converting others to Islam by force. Is it morally right to force people to believe in your own ideology or religion? if the answer is positive, then Muslims are right and the Americans are equally right, but if the answer is negative, then the Muslims are wrong, and Americans are equally wrong for trying to spreed their own capitalist ideology by force.

regrettably, a lot of my Christian brethern do not understand what they are believing in. they say that the Pope grow to be "purely conversing the reality," whilst they tend to miss the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, and the Holocaust in Nazi Germany, all sanctioned by potential of "Christians" who're perverting the scriptures of the Bible the same way that the Muslims pervert their scriptures whilst they fly airplanes into homes. till we recover from this "My God is better than your God" undertaking, we will purely shop killing one yet another and blowing one yet another up.

Uncalled for statement from a top religious head. They preach religious tolerance and on the contrary....

i think that what he quoted was the opinion of an Emperor who was an enemy of the Islamic nation, the Byzantine emperor naturally hated Islam.
i think it was wrong that the Pope quoted him, it was innapropriate, kind of like the quoting Hitler.
