Agora é o Santo Padre que está sob a mira dos Fundamentalistas islâmicos devido a alegados "insultos" proferidos relativamente à religião islâmica.
Isto não passa de mais um teste dos fundamentalistas islâmicos à capacidade de reacção da civilização ocidental. Lendo atentamente o discurso de sua santidade vemos que não existe qualquer referencia menos própria à religião islâmica, aliás, o discurso versava sobre a influência da Filosofia Helénica na ideia de "DEUS" presente nas religiões cristãs.
Transcrevo abaixo o parágrafo onde se encontram as frases da discórdia (Negrito e itálico meus):
In the seventh conversation edited by Professor Khoury, the emperor touches on the theme of the holy war. The emperor must have known that surah 2, 256 reads: "There is no compulsion in religion". According to the experts, this is one of the suras of the early period, when Mohammed was still powerless and under threat. But naturally the emperor also knew the instructions, developed later and recorded in the Qur'an, concerning holy war.
Without descending to details, such as the difference in treatment accorded to those who have the "Book" and the "infidels", he addresses his interlocutor with a startling brusqueness on the central question about the relationship between religion and violence in general, saying: "Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached".

The emperor, after having expressed himself so forcefully, goes on to explain in detail the reasons why spreading the faith through violence is something unreasonable. Violence is incompatible with the nature of God and the nature of the soul. "God", he says, "is not pleased by blood - and not acting reasonably is contrary to God's nature. Faith is born of the soul, not the body. Whoever would lead someone to faith needs the ability to speak well and to reason properly, without violence and threats... To convince a reasonable soul, one does not need a strong arm, or weapons of any kind, or any other means of threatening a person with death...".
A frase na qual os fundamentalistas islâmicos se baseiam para atacar Sua Santidade é "Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached".
o Termo "New - Novo" é usado relativamente à relação entre religião e violência (frase imediatamente anterior), ou seja Maomé não trouxe nada de novo à relação entre Religião e Violência a não ser a sua ordem escrita de expandir a religião atravéz da espada, o que é inumano e maléfico.
Note-se que o Islão é a unica religião que faz esta referência à expansão através da violência, outras religiões também praticaram esta forma de expansão no entanto, sem nunca o terem escrito.
Está provado que, tal como no caso dos Cartoons, todo o Ocidente está na mira destes terroristas, recuar é mostrar medo perante um cão raivoso
