With tens of millions of Catholic Christians living with Islamic swords hanging over their head, the Catholic pope is not free to act with the belligerence (boldness of the gospel of Christ Jesus) that many Protestants do. In an effort to make peace,...

You might want to read what God's Word says about that, which is quite the opposite:

Matthew 10: The student is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his master. It is enough for students to be like their teachers, and servants like their masters. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household! “So do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. 27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. 28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

Your words show that the institution that you defend wants to make lasting wordly peace between people. The gospel of Jesus is about making eternal peace between individuals and the one TRUE God, who is NOT the god of Islam. The former can NEVER occur without the latter.

You can’t change what I wrote and then criticize me for what YOU wrote! If I had meant “boldness of the Holy Spirit,” I would have said, “boldness of the Holy Spirit.” I meant “belligerence,” because that’s what is behind these idiots who preach that Allah is a moon god. If you want to change any hearts or minds among the Arabs, the first thing you need to do is understand how to speak to an Arab. But instead of an earnest desire to transform human hearts with passion for the suffering that Islam imposes on people, too many evangelical idiots just train themselves on excuses to hate, which the terrorist leaders of Islam are all too willing to provide, because they know that such hatred perpetuates hatred, and as long as Christians and non-Christian Arabs hate each other, they win.
