Pope Gets it Wrong on Islam  
Pope Benedict's speech at Regensburg University, which mentioned Islam and jihad, has provoked a firestorm of controversy.  

The address is more complex and subtle than the press on it represents.  But let me just signal that what is most troubling of all is that the Pope gets several things about Islam wrong, just as a matter of fact.


The Pope was wrong on the facts.  He should apologize to the Muslims and get better advisers on Christian-Muslim relations. [Informed Comment]
