Many Muslims Say Pope’s Apology Is Inadequate - New York Times

Many Muslims Say Pope's Apology Is Inadequate - New York Times

I'd like to draw attention to a particular part of this article:

“The pope has apologized, and that’s enough, so let’s calm down,” said Hasym Muzadi, head of Indonesia’s largest Islamic organization, Nahdlatul Ulama, which has 30 million members. “If we remain furious, then the pope will be considered correct.”

When people protest the pope's speech by shooting a nun, doesn't that just prove his point? A least this leader has some sense. A little something to think about and yet another example of how our world is so messed up nowadays.
