It just amazes me the hyprocisy that exists in the world today. Let me start by saying that the Catholic church doesn't have the best track record. However, I do feel that the Church itself is making strides to reach out and mend a lot of fences. In addition people need to remember that the church is more than just one person. Furthermore, I do believe that the Pope should not apologize.
He was quoting a medieval text...and the be honest due to the reaction by many Muslim nations it only validates, to some extent, the statements. I don't mind critism of the Catholic church. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. However what does frustrate me is the audacity to lash out against the innocent.
What do I mean by this?...
The first, bombing of churchs in Palestine and the shooting death of a nun.
Why is OK for Islamic leaders to critize the Catholic Church, but God forbid anyone every say a negative thing about Islam. Personally I think that all of us should respect everyone's religion, but people should also be able to accept critism.
Even with the great diversity of all the world's religion one thing remains common the one true constant is Love and Forgiveness. Let us not forget this.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of death...
