The pope angered muslims by quoting a centuries old text that claims that Islam was "evil" and spread "by the sword". Is this response by a muslim group a good rebuttal?...
"The group said Muslims would be victorious and addressed the pope as "the worshipper of the cross" saying "you and the West are doomed as you can see from the defeat in Iraq, Afghanistan, Chechnya and elsewhere. ... We will break up the cross, spill the liquor and impose head tax, then the only thing acceptable is a conversion (to Islam) or (killed by) the sword."
What's the arabic word for "hypocrite"?

If the Pope had called the Muslims "wonderful, gentle, peace-loving people" they'd be up in arms, too.
Seems these days that you can't say **anything** that doesn't get the Muslims pissed off!

compliment to the Pope! that's approximately time the Pope angered somebody, as he and the Vatican stored silent earlier and via worldwide conflict II while Jews have been being slaughtered. The U.S., England, France, Russia. and an incredible type of alternative international locations have been conscious of the atrocities being visited upon the Jews. additionally they did no longer something to relieve those atrocities. You attain what you sow. international locations have, and are sowing, discord and mistrust interior the call of "faith". Crusaders (i've got self belief we call them "politicians" now) have annihilated cities, states, and worldwide places. The Apocalypse is nigh.

If the Pope said its time to throw the Jews out of Israel the muslims would have still called for the Pope's head.

The Pope quoted the text but has said that it did not represent his views. The intent of the speech was to foster honest dialog between people and that violence is not the way God wants us to act. It was not to say that Islam and Mohamed are evil.

Ok, so Muslims can say or threaten whoever they want without provocation and no one is allowed to say boo to the Muslims?
Yes, that DOES make you a hypocrite.

don't know Arabic and don't care to learn. But you are correct in the term "Hypocrites". The Muslim leaders are at that.

You're right, except that bashing Catholics is PC, and bashing Muslims is not.
