The 14th worldwide meltdown of Muslims caused by Pope

Pope Benedict is starting to give me reasons to rejoin the Catholic Faith. If there is such a thing as speaking truth to power then he is fully committed to such a course. No namby pamby beating around the bushes, he goes straight for the central issue regarding Islam’s dealings with the West. The debate about whether Islam can be reformed enough must center around Mohammed himself, his life, his example, since Islam revolves around him. If Mohammed was a radical then exactly how is the religion to reform itself without losing its soul.

"Your critical assessment of a "practicing" Catholic tells me a lot."

Interesting, isn't it, how it's a good thing for a "practicing" Catholic to criticize the Holy Father, but a bad thing to criticize a lay "catholic" who criticizes the Pope.

In any case, though the Holy Father is certainly fallible in non-doctrinal matters, who are you to criticize this man for not being more condemning and confrontational with islam? Should he himself be the spark of WWIII or worldwide riots? Does he need to speak like Michael Moore, cutting to the bone to make his point? He spoke of Islam's evil theology in his speech, and he spoke of other evils which permeate our times, (such as weak-kneed Catholics and the falling away from the faith). Pope Benedict has lamented the evils of islam on several other occassions in recent months as well. I think maybe you should either read more or gain a better understanding of what the Holy Father's job description is. You yourself said he is fallable in matters not pertaining to faith and morals, so I guess you want to be his political and spiritual advisor? Write him a letter and ask for the job.

Well dumbass me forgot about the Rolling Stones song 19th Nervous breakdown which would have been a much more appropriate title. Thanks to the Freeper that reminded me of that song. Oops.

I just pulled the number out of my rear end. Heck for all I know it might be their 4,000,000th meltdown.

But recent breakdowns include but are not limited to the Cartoon fiasco, the Nigerian Beauty Contest and all.

hehe...Muslims are a very insecure people.

[PierreLegrand]

I am right there with you regarding the Holy Father. He is doing far more than any other world leader right now regarding sounding the call to arms against Islam. As much as I love what President Bush has done he still has a terrifically large blind spot when it comes to Islam.

[PierreLegrand]

Let us not forget that Pope John Paul's attempted assassination by Mehmet Ali Agca a Muslim.

Then we have the whole history of the Catholic Churches central role in throwing Islam into the ditch the last time Islam tried to rule the world.

Tis only by faith that we will win this war...only by faith. The rational secularists are mightily confused by Islam.

Freepers not sure if this was correct to post. If not please let me know and I won't do it again. Thank you. I posted it because I have seen numerous other links to blogs. If it is improper don't hesitate to let me know.

It looks right & proper to me.

Welcome.

Good to see you you here- I've been trying to wake people up about this menace to the West for years:

-Islam, a Religion of Peace®? Some links...--

There are so many 1000's of times us Christians have been kicked around...we never act like a bunch of thugs...never!!!

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Only the 14th worldwide meltdown in 14 centuries???

[FreedomCalls]

If it's from your own blog, it's supposed to go in the "Bloggers & Personal" section, not the "News/Activism" section.

I am certainly not qualified but you do seem well qualified for the "condescending Angel" position. My opinions on this forum are just that, my opinions. They are not intended as advice but as my own expressed doubts and concerns. Casting truth on the opinion will either reinforce them or trigger me to rethink them. I read the Pope's speech and I drew the same conclusion as Rush Limbaugh, that the Pope should have used his own words rather than quoting another's. I agree the Pope has taken a "Politically defensible" position on Islam. In my opinion, he has not gone far enough with a direct threat against Christianity.

I can accept the humor, but it was not apparent and thus it was taken as meaningful but unexplained.

The word "umpteenth" is a good catchall phrase for what you intended; and is usually understood to mean latest/last in an indefinitely numerous series.

[PierreLegrand]

Thank you and sorry for the mistake

[PierreLegrand]

Sounds like you are saying that tongue in cheek. We have been kicked around but I don't recall Jesus personally supervising the beheading of all the males in a tribe and the selling of the women and children into slavery. Perhaps that is part of the New Testament that I missed...please advise.
