"His Holiness' Nuncio to the United States, Archbishop Pietro Sambi, lights a traditional Hindu devotional lamp before the statues of Hindu deities."

Soooo, did you pray this Hindu verse?
Did your local house of worship offer this pagan prayer up?

Oh my gosh.
Not much longer to wait before the little horn proclaims his one world religion.
Pray to not be deceived.

I cannot imagine that the Pope has not already read and studied Hindru scriptures. He’s an educated man after all.

Maybe Moses should have participated in the golden calf festivities and stopped being so judgmental...

Nothing to see here. Please keep the line moving. Remove all watches and rings when you place your hand in the machine to be marked.

On Good Friday? I guess any god will do when striving to please man and not God

I’m not Catholic; but I see nothing wrong with adding those lines in an address. There are several world religions that have admirable traits, thoughts and philosophies that can help us gain a better understanding of what we are to be.
Honestly, there is only 1 world-wide religion that I can think of that has nothing worthwhile to contribute to mankind - and it isn’t Satanism.... ok, ... make that 1 World-wide religion and one small cult.

You left off the "Christian Fundamentalist Caucus" tag. You might need a "Snakehandlers" one, too.

Hey now... it’s all good, so long as the Pope isn’t in, ‘the zone of infallability,’ it doesn’t count anyway, right?

This may very well be true but I don’t remember hearing about this at the time (almost a year ago) and given that the service commemorates martyrs of the catholic faith who perished at the hands of pagans - I would be very surprised if it were.
But if it is true I agree that it is disturbing given the context. Nevertheless a pope doing something foolish like this ( or kissing the koran ) affects not at all the truth of Catholicism.

The quote that was used is: “Lead me from the unreal to the real, from darkness to light, from death to immortality.”
Nothing in that specific line that conflicts with Christianity.
