From the Dep't of You Can't Make This Stuff Up;

Who'd a thunk it, the Pope on the side of Catholics!

"Catholics Warn: Jihadists Increasingly Islamic"

Posted by: kelly at August 27, 2005 4:34 AMOne cannot become more Catholic than the Pope himself.
The Jihadists are even stupider than Canadian leftists!

Posted by: Colin at August 27, 2005 10:43 AMOnly in the twisted logic of dogmatic secularism would the pope be accused of being "too Catholic" and this in itself a negative thing. Perhaps there is a ideological connection there between radical secularism and radical Islam?
Posted by: WL Mackenzie Redux at August 27, 2005 11:47 AMWLM Redux: I believed there is; to a degree. Both are bigoted, not only against Jews, but against all Christians, including Catholics. Wonder what reaction there'd be if someone were to accuse someone else of becoming "Too Islamic"?
Posted by: Stephen McAllister at August 27, 2005 6:15 PMCorrection: the word "believed" shld be "believe".
Posted by: Stephen McAllister at August 27, 2005 6:16 PMThe Pope is leaning to the Catholic side of things.
Insurgents are leaning to the more Jihadist side of things.

Posted by: TonyGuitar at August 28, 2005 2:36 AMI'm reminded of when sometimes one is asked a stupid, obvious-answer-is-yes question and then responds, "Is the Pope Catholic?"
I Guess Jihadists wouldn't get it.

Well, at least the Vatican doesn't occupy an entire (normal-sized) country and ban all other religions from being practised there... unlike a certain other sect of a certain other religion I could name.
If you're going to have a one-religion-only enclave, its postage-stamp size is a reason to praise its tolerance, not mock its smallness.
(And I'm a Protestant -- ex-Catholic, in fact.)
