thanks for the comment. yeah i checked whether a story connecting pope and islam was posted earlier. tthere were several ones and the last one was posted 149 days before or something like that. i.e., pope benedict and islam always makes story. i don't know why he wanted to portray islam as something really bad. (by the way i'm not muslim and i'm not christian either, so you can take me as an unbiased person).this story is very recent. it looks like he can't get enough of islam
