Papal Apology is False. Pope Benedict Should Make a True Apology to Muslims
The pope has made a false apology.
Apologizing for the angry reaction to inflammatory remarks is to place blame on those who reacted with anger.
The anger was justified.
The pope CHOSE to quote inflammatory and insulting remarks from the 14th Century.
He sinned.
He emulated his hero (the false apostle, Paul) in using a quote to shield himself.
Paul, in one of his letters, said that all Cretans are liars and gluttons. He was using a quote, but it expressed the point he was obviously trying to make.
I wonder if he ever apologized to the people of Crete?

I agree, but dont think it will happen.
I don't know.....it seems I have nothing to say.
Or, at least, what I say makes no difference.
I question the efficacy of blogging.
