All the guy was trying to say is that while it might be legal to make fun of another religion, it is not polite. And we should be polite.

No, the Pope was saying that physical violence was an appropriate response to someone exercising his Freedom of Speech.

By mentioning "punching someone in the nose," he trivialized the massacres in Paris.

I don't care if someone views Islam as a "cult of death" or as an acceptable form of religion - any physical violence initiated because someone takes offense at the utterances of others is simply unacceptable.

Regards,
