None of the Abrahamic faiths -Islam, Christianity and Judaism- are toothless religions. The Pope should recall the Crusades, when the church used the same sword to further its cause. The Bible says, "First take the log out of your own eye and then you shall see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye" (Matthew 7:5). At a time when relations between the Muslim and Christian world are tense, the Pope's statement added fuel to the fire. It is important that we all respect one another's religion.[Time, Oct. 23, 2006]
