#1 that Islam could not be equated with terrorism

Nazism could not be equated with Luftwaffe raids.

"In almost every religion there is always a small group of fundamentalists. We have them too."

I sure hope the Swiss Guard is on the alert against Roundhead fanatics.

And every great religion chooses a dud leader from time to time. Today, you're it.

#4 The Pope should realize that speaking in such generalities is deliberately deceptive and such equivocation is clearly political and dangerous to all.

The guy is a Leftist, deception and equivocation are part of his ideology. He's Left before he's Catholic. There are lots of clergy that are in the church because it's a comfortable lifestyle. They don't really believe.

#8 Someone should ask our dear Pope how they can use money when they're dead.

#13 Most mainstream Christian sects seem infested with chardonnay liberals these days.

And conflate their politics with their religion.

#16 No doubt the cardinals will go in a different direction for the next pope, and the Church will survive. In the meantime, good Catholics will ponder the lesson the pope provides.

actually they nailed it.
