BTW - I am not saying that I see a lot coming out of it either, but the Pope must attempt to dialog. And before you lose any more respect for him, tell me.... who else brought up the issue of islamic violence in world discussion? None other than His Awesomeness B16. While he did so in a roundabout fashion, and was critical of the West as well, the Muslims heard what he meant load and clear, and reacted strongly to it.

Let us hope you are right. But I do not see radical Islam having any respect for anything or anyone other than their own insanity.
