Here is a link to the English translation of the Pope's controversial speech: http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/speeches/2006/september/documents/hf_ben-xvi_spe_20060912_university-regensburg_en.html
With love in Christ.

Only what someone else said a few hundred years ago - a comment regarding Islam being a religion of hate and unrest, and its followers being irrational and angry.
Their response to the quotation is one of Pure Hatred & Anger, and the recently anounced "Jihad" against the Pope and Christianity...
Funny, but the Quote, although not the Popes current feelings describe the majority of these: Efigy Burning Jihad waging sand monkies that have nothing but hatred and anger inside of their hearts...
Such a shame when a people can only portray themselves as an aggressive and unruley mob, bent on murder and revenge.

The Pope quoted the textual content cloth yet has mentioned that it did no longer symbolize his perspectives. The reason of the speech grew to become into to foster honest communique between human beings and that violence isn't the way God needs us to act. It grew to become into to no longer say that Islam and Mohamed are evil.

He was in the St Mother Mary, Sister of Mercy By The River Catholic Club having a pint after work and said to the Bishop
"Did you hear the one about The Muslim and a Nun?"
Seems to have really pissed them off!

Everthing anyone says angers the Muslims. If you say Muhammed was left handed it will anger the Muslims. If you say he wore glasses they will kill you. If you say they are violent they will kill you just to show how wrong you are. Heck, they kill each other. It's the end of the world folks!

He read an excerpt from a 15th century conversation between an Islamic scholar and a Byzantine emperor discussing the methods of Islam being spread through violence.

nothing at all. It's just that the mohommedans are over sensitive, probably because they realise that their "faith" is on the decline as education advances.
Anyway, the loony in iran has just claimed that it's actually a US-zionist conspiracy. Those guys are fit for the asylum.

He quoted a medieval emperor that said that violence and Islam often go together. Little did His Holyness know that they would instantly take to the streets and damage churches to prove Him right.

He referred to a quote that stated that some group of people didn't like Muslims that much but I think it was taken out of context. He didn't actually say 'People don't like muslims' - he was just quoting something and everyone went ape sh*t!
