Pope Says It Like It Is

MSNBC:

The pope quoted from a book recounting a conversation between 14th-century Byzantine Christian Emperor Manuel Paleologos II and a Persian scholar on the truths of Christianity and Islam.

“The emperor comes to speak about the issue of jihad, holy war,” Benedict said. “He said, I quote, ’Show me just what Muhammad 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.”’

That's right.

I find this amusing:

Many Muslims accused Benedict of seeking to promote Judeo-Christian dominance over Islam.

No need since Islam itself ensures that the Muslim lands remain inferior to the Judeo-Christian parts of the world.
