> I guess what you object to is that he voices his belief.
What I object to is that he's so obnoxious about it. There's no diplomacy in Benedict's church. No reaching out. He repeatedly insults and derides people of other faiths and then instead of apologies, he explains that he was "misunderstood."
[sarcasm]
I didn't insult Jews. I didn't insult Muslims. I didn't insult Protestants. I just said you're all corrupt, your prophets and leaders are liars and tools of the devil and you'll all burn in hell.
[/sarcasm]
John Paul II was eloquent.
Benedict is an oaf.
