CARDINAL PELL SPEAKS BOLDLY ON ISLAM

According to The Trumpet:

In an interview conducted in Rome, Pell told the National Catholic Reporter that “the ‘million-dollar question’ was whether intolerance was a modern distortion of Islam or arose out of internal logic. ‘It’s difficult to find periods of tolerance in Islam,’ Australia’s top Catholic was quoted as saying” (Australian Associated Press, June 6).


The headline, "Catholic Archbishop Offends Muslims" is hardly neutral. What is offensive about the truth? In any case, the last paragraph would appear to be a call for religious war:

We do not question the veracity of Pell’s observations, but rather point out that the vocalization of such views by high-ranking Catholic officials is a precursor to a time coming soon when these two universal religions will come to blows.
