Pope Francis made an emotional plea for peace on Sunday in an impromptu addition to comments delivered at his weekly Angelus address in Saint Peter's Square.

As the Argentinian-born pontiff wrapped up his regular address to the faithful, he spoke of the upcoming centenary of the outbreak of World War One and said his thoughts were on the Middle East, Iraq and Ukraine in particular.

With his voice appearing to crack with emotion, the pope broke off from his scripted remarks to make a direct appeal for fighting to end.

"Please stop!, I ask you with all my heart, it's time to stop. Stop, please!"

That’s what the Pope seems to be saying.

I didn’t realize you were paraphrasing what Pope Francis has been alluding to. So yes, especially the Pope should know that not all beliefs are the same.

But I wonder what he truly believes sometimes.

The last time the Muzzies got this out of control the various Popes had the balls to fight the Crusades.
