Pope Doesn't Support Islam!
Let's file this in the "ok, DUH" category:
Pope's Speech Stirs Muslim Anger »
I can't believe the gall of this guy. First, he is made the veritable head of the Catholic church and then he has the outrageous insolence to speak out against another religion! Come on. The absolute effrontery of pointing out the obvious flaws of Islam. The least he could do is downplay the differences between them and give everyone in the world a big vicarious group hug.
I mean, after all, Ali Badda Kolu, an Islamic religious scholar made it perfectly clear that Muslims do not defame the Holy Bible or Jesus Christ. The promise only to criticize Christianity. (whew!)
"The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Apostle, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: Execution, or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides, or exile from the land: That is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment is theirs in the Hereafter;" Or did I take that out of context?
"Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; at length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them): Thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded): But if it had been Allah’s Will, He could certainly have exacted retribution from them (Himself); but (He lets you fight) in order to test you, some with others. But those who are slain in the way of Allah, —He will never let their deeds be lost." Oh wait, that's right. I'm reading it in English, of COURSE I don't 'get' it! *smacks forehead*
