Quit Apologizing Already
How many times does Pope Benedict XVI have to apologize for quoting the writing of an emporer from 700 years ago? Did he pick the best quote in the world to prove his point? Absolutely not. Do you think he honestly meant to offend Muslims and their religion as a whole? Absolutely not.
So what do they do to show their frustration with what the Pope said? They protest, get violent and says that he should be hunted down and killed. Um…didn’t the quote talk about violence? Aren’t these radicals just proving the point? Leonard Pitts thinks so and I agree with him.
And I’m still waiting for Madonna to apologize for her mock crucifixion that she performs on her latest tour. Oh that’s right — that will never happen! And why? Because most people don’t know about it since it wasn’t plastered all over the media like the Pope’s comments have. Mocking Christianity and Jesus Christ seesms to be absolutely fine to everyone, but mention Mohammed or Islam and protests and threats of violence come from all over the world! Will someone please explain the double standard here?!?!?
