So how long before the Pope calls for a new Crusade?

Why the heck is he "weighing in" on the subject of jihad? All we need is another reason for holy heck to break loose on religious grounds. Armageddon here we come!

I have no use for organized religions any more.

1. Uh...forever?

I'm no fan of the current Pontiff, but there's a big difference between being conservative and attempting to reestablish the Holy Roman Empire. That ain't gonna happen, no matter how deep the paranoia of some.

2. “How many divisions does the Pope have?”

I don't think the Catholic Pope has that kind of power anymore.

Hopefully.

3. When we get a Catholic US president

The pope will have the final touches on his evil plan to rule the world by crushing the Muslins

7. right...like having President John Kerry

8. Your joking right?..I mean, that was vile!

How dare you write something like that? Do you honestly feel that just because a person is Catholic that they can not show judgement and original thought, that they will only follow the word of the Pope? If you do, may I suggest that you seek the help you desperately need. I guess next you will be suggesting that Catholics should not serve on juries or even have the right to vote?

If you were just kidding, then sorry for the harshness of this post.

If you were serious, you are a complete asshole.

Have a nice day.

9. Err, Joke

4. You should be ashamed of yourself

This is inflamatory - The previous pope was AGAINST the war and spoke out constantly in the run up to the war. This is pure anti-Catholic rhetoric!

(Note - I am Jewish, not Catholic)

6. It's anti-organized religion rhetoric, if you must call it rhetoric.

We need yet another "religious leader" adding to the heated political atmosphere like we need another * administration.

5. You mean against Islam?

Because he's pretty much down so against homosexuals.
