Pope Francis said last night that equating Islam with violence was wrong and called on Muslim leaders to issue a global condemnation of terrorism to help dispel the notion.
He told reporters aboard his plane returning from a visit to Turkey that he understood why Muslims were offended by many in the West who automatically equated their religion with terrorism. He said

"You just can't say that, just as you can't say that all Christians are fundamentalists. We have our share of them (fundamentalists).All religions have these little groups. They (Muslims) say: “No, we are not this, the Koran is a book of peace, it is a prophetic book of peace”.’(continue)Image-EPA
‘I told the president (Turkey)that it would be beautiful if all Islamic leaders, whether they are political, religious or academic leaders, would speak out clearly and condemn this because this would help the majority of Muslim people,’ he said.
Pope don't annoy me o.
ReplyDeleteWho are you jare??
DeleteOshey pope!!
Lol, I support pope, being evil has got nothing to do with religion
DeleteTruth Abi what do u call ur bigheaded self. Don't u ever think before u post? Okponu.
DeleteIslamic is a religion of peace but the leaders mustreally come out to condemn people like boko haram and isis
ReplyDeleteYOU WERE NOT AWARE, BUT ISLAMIC PREACHERS HAVE BEEN PREACHING AGAINST BOKO HARAM SINCE BEFORE THEY BECOME ARMED, AND GET SPONSORED,,,SINCE 2007 AND YOU CAN SIMPLY GO ON YOUTUBE TO CHECK YOUR SELF,THE LECTURE ARE MOSTLY IN HAUSA, I DONT KNOW IF YOU SPEAK HAUSA
DeleteHmmmmmmmm pope God bless you but next time becareful we don't want them capturing you and beheading you o please,or bombing you
ReplyDeleteGod will. See us through and all the nations facing insecurity problem.
ReplyDeleteE.g Nigeria..
DeleteNo they are a religion of violence. When BH was killing Christians, their leaders imams never condemned them. But if Christians fight, pastor's condemn immediately.
ReplyDeleteUse ur head Mr man/woman.
DeleteHas anyone gone to their mosque to hear their imam preach?It is about killing infidels who refuses to convert to islam.Why havent the muslim leaders call for elimination of any terrorists caught in the north?Even when soldiers kill them they will say they are killing muslims.
ReplyDeleteI won't all dat agree to dis cos MURIC(Muslim association or wateva) called on d federal govt of Nigeria abt d sysmbol on d new 100naira note sayin its a jewish sysmbol and there's no islamic symbol on it. I don't no y muslims lyk startin violence
Delete@Sunnyotun, WHo urges the youth to form civilian JTF, is it the pastors, i can swear with my life that no any muslim preacher, preaches to kill christians. Mark my words.if you understand hausa you can simply check many preaches preaching against boko haram,,since before they were sponsored.many of them have been killed,,,but nonethe less, they never stop condemning them,
DeleteThis is the best pope ever!he doesn't discriminate anyone like most so called christians do.ofcos all muslims aint fundamentalists.its just a few idiots rubbishing the religion.but my annoyance is that muslim leaders don't condemn the terrorism publicly
ReplyDelete@ honesty, i dont know if you understand hausa or not, but if you speak, i will give you uncountable youtube links,which some of the preachers are killed now,,,that preach strongly against BOKO HARAM since 2007,,you can check it your self,,
