The Pope Apologizes
So I'm half-assed listening to the news this morning and I see where a bunch of Muslims are running amok, burning and shooting up churches and generally getting their panties in a wad, calling for Jihad and demanding that the Pope be hung. I'm wondering what he said that got them all upset, so I search on Google News and here's what I find.

El Pope is probably worried the church doesn't have enough knights in shining armor and sadistic priests acting in the name of a very angry God to survive a bloody masachre not started by Chatholic fanatics. |loony| |
He quoted one of the earlier popes who had said something bad about the muslims. But the current pope only made that quote in the context of "miscommunications like this (what the other pope said) should be avoided in the future".
And suddenly the entire middle east and every muslim community in Europe are going crazy... I don't get these things. Ah well, never thought I would participate in a thread about religion :) |
I just don't get any of the popes. I mean, how many people have died in the name of Catholicism?
At least the last pope seemed to be able to speak in public without causing an uproar. They really could do so much good if they would get out of the past. |
He was quoting a pope that helped sponsor the crusades when Christians were running around killing Muslims in the name of God on a scale that's much worse then Saddam's genocide. He should apologize.
The last pope promoted peace but I don't think this one feels the same way. |
He was quoting from a transcript of a series of conversations between a Byzantine emperor and a Persian scholar.
