The last pope was said to be too conservative. He even went to africa to protest against condoms for smurf sake. And Ratzinger is like twice as bad. I dont know if he was talking about muslims in general or just about the jihad, but I dont doubt that he must have said something pretty stupid. He is a complete hypocrite for saying that the early muslims spread their religion through violence. Did he forget about the Spanish Inquisition? I think id rather be forced to believe in a religion by bombs than by being wheel stretched. Those particular muslims should control themselves too though. I agree that the mohammed thing was blown way out of proportion.
