Pope Naive About Islam

Submitted by Dave (United States), Oct 10, 2014 at 08:29

I'm glad that Major Hasan has sent the Pope this letter as it could help educate Pope Francis about Islam, a subject that he appears to be clueless about. For example, recently, the Pope joined the ranks of George Bush, John Kerry and countless other naifs in expounding on the peaceful contents of the Koran and how terrorists have misused it. In writing this I mean no disrespect to Catholics or the Pope, but would like to recall the wisdom of Will Rogers who once observed that we're all ignorant, just in different subjects.
