Pope Benedict XVI: (quoting a Byzantine emperor) “‘Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.”
Radical Muslims (al Qaeda): “We shall break the cross and spill the wine. … God will (help) Muslims to conquer Rome. … God enable us to slit their throats, and make their money and descendants the bounty of the mujahideen.” (CNN, September 18, 2006)
Rosie O’Donnell: “Radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam in a country like America where we have a separation of church and state. We’re a democracy here.”
Radical Christians (Christian Coalition spokesman): “This is America, and everyone can have their own opinion, however, we do disagree with her opinion. Christianity is all about faith. Christianity is all about humanity and equality. That was the core of the life of Jesus Christ.” (Crosswalk, September, 2006)
