Who amongst us could ever have imagined this image splashed across our tv screens - the Pope and Patriarch, arms entwined, joined in a common mission - to restore Christianity to a country that has abandoned its roots and now embraces Islam.
The only thing missing from their joint declaration is this message to the Christians: "Be fruitful and multiply!" (like the Muslims :-)
Beautiful and touching article. Thank you, K, for posting this thread.
