This is all part of the muzzie takeover of the UK and the left’s attack on Christianity. The muzzies are co-opting the left and will use them until they’re no longer useful at which point they will be beheaded or, if they’re lucky, merely banished. The NYT is up to its eyeballs in this smear of Benedict because it’s so hateful of Christianity, particularly the strong pro-life wing. The NYT probably has no clue the extent to which this helps our Islamic enemies.....or maybe they do and that’s their goal. It really doesn’t matter.
You WOULD think, to be fair, the NYT would illustrate some of the sheikhly shenanigans that take place in both the Middle East and at home. It probably dwarfs that of Christian institutions of any stripe. But there’s no Islamic pope to take pot shots at so it’s less fun for them. Also they’d find themselves jihadees in short order.
