do you think the pope needs to apologize?

Answer 1

For what?!? If the Muslims would read this;
http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/speeches/2006/september/documents/hf_ben-xvi_spe_20060912_university-regensburg_en.html

and understand it....they should be appologizing to us Christians! Instead, they are proving the words and thoughts written 600yrs+ ago to be absolutely true today as back in the day they were written!

Answer 2

Pope Benedict was using the quote he used, and again, it was a quote, he didn't say it himself, to say the same thing Pope John Paul II said except John Paul said it more diplomatically. John Paul simply said that religion should not be used as a justification for war (not an exact quote). Rather hypocritical on the part of both because religion has been used to justify war throughout human history. The conquest of the western hemisphere by the european "Christian" forces is a good example in modern times. Comes from the philosophy that "my God is the only God".

Answer 3

He already has, and over a quote no less! After reading what Islamic terrorists have said about killing Christians, breaking the cross, and imposing a head tax, so that those who pay it won't be killed, I am cautiously waiting for the Revelations prophesies to unfold.

Answer 4

NO...

Since when can some one not make an intellectual comment without the threat of violence, the ones dancing in the street burning flags, probably haven't read his remarks because they cannot either read or do not understand.

Is this coming to America.

I have to add they are proving his point every day.

Answer 5

It is the idiots who have reacted exactly as the pope stated they would that should apologise for not being civil.

Answer 6

He already has. The islamists where able to shift the attention from the implied , Islam + violence, to a perceived slight , insult.
