The Pope didn't offer the altar. It was an aberration, much like Williamson's praises of the Unabomber.
You are nothing if not melodramatic.
Okay, he just offered the BUDDHISTS our altars. Same difference. In fact, he didn't say boo to the bishop who bragged about turning a Catholic shrine into a Hindu temple. I guess it would take the bishop's saying the old Mass at Fatima to get the Pope really worked up. Can't have that going on!
