Who Will The World Blame?

[Galloglasses]

Question: If Islam does follow through with the threats, and DOES launch an attack against Rome which WILL lead to a wider conflict and much more trouble, will the World blame the Pope for provocing it?

If they do... Why would I not be surprised?

[prose]

Wish I could choose multiple answers. Since I can't, I will null vote

I think it's important to draw the distinction between [i]radical[/i] Islam and [i]moderate[/i] Islam. The [i]radicals[/i] do not represent the entire religion, no matter how loud and obnoxious they are. It's like the evangelicals. Are they representative of all of Christendom?

That said, the world will rightly condemn the attacks. Some will blame America and Christianity/Catholicism while others will blame all of Islam.

The United States, namely George W. Bush because of the Iraq/Terror War.

Indeed, everything it would seem has been Americans and/or Bush's fault for the last 7 years, if there is another major terrorist attack in the world it is highly likely that the blame will be on Bush/America. Like there was for the Spain train bombings, which caused the Spanish to turn tail run.

Agreed. Thanks for clarifying.

I think overall, religion as a whole will be blamed.

Yes I expect this would happen here in secular Britain.

I voted for the religious extremists that launched the attack in the first place.

First of all,

Stop believing everything you hear in the media. As a former Journalism Student, I know there is only about 6 corporations that own 80 per cent of the popular media in the world. If they want you to have a certain world bent, they give that bent - like All Muslims are evil sociopaths ready to blow themselves up to destroy you good Christians!

If you actually believe the above sentence, you need to realize, most Muslims are like most Catholics, honest men and women who love God, and wouldn't do anything like that, and they avoid mad men like the leaders of the Taliban and Al Qeada like the plague, like we avoid madmen like David Koresh.

Second of all,

Have faith in God friend. The glass is half-filled. God has those people who would do something like that in his eyes, and he will recompense those who are truly responsible.

I don't think there will be this huge Muslim Uprising against Catholicism and Rome. Osama Bin Laden, if he is still alive - because it would be hard to hide out if you need Kidney Dialysis three times a week - only has a handful of young men to carry out his bidding. Way to few to lay siege on the Vatican! Give you head a shake!

Third of all,

Want to prevent this 'attack' make Muslim friends, and do what Paul says, when you're with the Muslim, be like the Muslim, so you can win him over to Christ!

Nuff said about world politics.

Polls show aound 10% of the world's Muslims would actively support Jihad (when you look at total numbers, this is not an insignificant group). Most of the rest have not said they would oppose it.
Islam teaches that all Christians and Jews are infidels who have rejected Mohammed as The Prophet, and deserve to live in submission to Muslims unless they accept Islam. The goal is Islam is to rule the world. "Islam" means "submission."
That is not the belief of a few extremists, but orthodox Islamic dogma.

This "religion of peace" tripe is pure bs.
The agression of Islamists around the world is well documented.

Most definitely.
