Religion of Peace update: Pope must convert or die
How’s this for peace? (and don’t miss the upside-down sign saying “Jihad is our way.”)
From the Department of “Convert or Die,” Muslims demand pope convert to Islam
Christian churches in the Middle East are vandalized, a Catholic nun in Africa is killed and Muslims have demanded that the pope convert to Islam – all because he read a quote from a medieval text that described Islam as “evil and inhuman.”The pope has issued an apology for even referencing the historic text, emphasized that those views are not his, but still many in the Islamic world are demanding blood.
A new group called “The sword of Islam” contacted reporters and said it had fired gunshots at a Christian church in the Middle East during a demonstration over the comments.
“We want to make it clear that if the pope does not appear on TV and apologize for his comments, we will blow up all of Gaza’s churches,” the group said in a report.
The controversy arose a few days ago while Pope Benedict XVI was speaking in Germany, and he referred to the conclusions of Byzantine emperor Manuel II Paleologus, in which he made the reference to Islam being violent.
The pope, according to a Vatican statement, was simply reflecting on the “theme of the relationship between religion and violence in general, and to conclude with a clear and radical rejection of the religious motivation for violence, from whatever side it may come.”
But Muslims reacted to what they apparently perceived as an attack on their religion, and started vandalizing Middle East Christian churches, with seven so far sustaining varying levels of destruction.
In Africa, a nun was shot and killed, with indications the attack may have been a reaction to the statements.
And now, a report in the Jerusalem Post said that Muslim religious leaders in the Gaza Strip are warning the pope that he must “accept” Islam if he wanted to live in peace.
One Muslim cleric, Imad Hamto, said the pope must “repent and ask for forgiveness” and Hamto referred to a phrase taken from letters sent by the founder of Islam to the chiefs of tribes in his times – when he reportedly urged them to convert to Islam in order to keep their lives.
Are these real Muslims? Are they following the “true Islam?”
Obviously, they believe they are.
Attention Muslims, you are not doing a good job at convincing the world that your religion isn’t “evil and inhuman” when you demand that the head of Catholicism convert to Islam under threat of murder and destruction.
Um, in fact you’re demonstrating an inability to coexist peacefully with anyone.
