the funny thing is that the Pope didnt do that. He gave an acedemic speach on violence and the spread of religion and a small part of that speach referred to a writing from undreds of years ago about spreading islam at the point of a sword.
So - we have riots, murders, arson, and a declaration of war that includes death by the sword if Americans dont convert to islam.
All I can say is muslims brains gotta hurt trying to wrap all that in a nice package and call themselves peaceful.
praise be the peas

Muslims are given too much attention by the media. Before 9/11 no one much paid any attention to them. But now they have the worlds complete attention and they are using it. They are a sorry bunch. The Byzantine Emperor that the Pope quoted was right. Today the Muslim has blackmailed the entire civilized world with violence. Have they ever contributed anything of value to the human race? I mean since they domesticated the Camel? And they did this by beating it no doubt.

Whatever the case may be, this particular Pope had also made the mistake, in my opinion, of asking where was God during the Holocaust; if the Pope's status is indeed to reflect a person most close to the ideaology of the Godhead, I think that he should use greater discretion in revealing whatever conflict that he may have in his heart.

The truce and joint Christian-Muslim campaign against a common enemy -- this is referred to as the "Battle Between the Two Great Armies" or Armageddon (at the conclusion of which all war technology shall become unusable) -- followed by a Christian vs. Muslim war -- this is called the "Great Slaughter" (al-malhama al-kubra) -- as stated in the following hadith:
"You will make a firm truce with the Christians (al-Rum) until you and they wage a campaign against an enemy that is attacking them. You will be granted victory and great spoils. Then you will alight in a plain surrounded by hills. There, someone among the Christians shall say: 'The Cross has overcome!' whereupon someone among the Muslims shall say: 'Nay, Allah has overcome!' and shall go and break the cross. The Christians shall kill him, then the Muslims shall take up their arms and the two sides shall fall upon each other. Allah shall grant martyrdom to that group of Muslims. After that the Christians shall say to their leader: 'We shall relieve you of the Arabs,' and they shall gather up for the great battle (al-malhama). They shall come to you under eighty flags, each flag gathering 12,000 troops." [approx. 1 million]

it incredibly is so a techniques from the fact that is no longer humorous, that isn't what the pope mentioned in any respect, you could pass to his website and examine it for your self. He grew to become into having a dialogue on the dating of the Muslim and Christan religions in historic previous and grew to become into examining a letter written over six hundred years in the past. it would be incredibly ordinary for the Muslim leaders to coach the letter incorrect by making use of carry interest to it and then forgiving the previous, studying from it and occurring to boost the dating between everybody of the international. somewhat by making use of making use of the six hundred twelve months previous letter in this type, and taking it completely out of context and making use of it to incite hate and mistrust interior the international, the Muslim leaders are doing extra to coach the six hundred twelve months previous letter grew to become into mind-blowing. Sounds as though the Muslim community grew to become into purely imparted with a bite of the help and advised that they have been the words of the Pope and did no longer point out each and all the fact.

Actually the Pope was only quoting an emperor from the 14th century, he was not accusing, nor was he agreeing with his views...

They are going about proving that infact what the pope said was right.
