Pope Benedict says mass in Jordan

05/10/09

The pope's in Jordan today with the brave Christians who've kept their near 2000-year tradition alive. Some people don't realize that Christianity is older than Islam and that the Middle East and Africa, including Egypt, of course, was a Christian stronghold.

I watched some TV news today and all of them focused on how the pope's angered Muslims or Jews. I understand that news has to have some sort of angle and that controversy is more interesting, but one has to wonder how any leader can make everybody happy all of the time while being committed to the truth.
