In light of the recent statemenst made by Pope Benedict regarding the Nation of Islam/Muslim faith and the reaction stemming from those statements, should the Pope keep his schedule to tour countries in the Middle East with the conflict continuing throughout that part of the world.
Abdullah Gul, Foreign Minister of Turtkey, said it’s O.K. for the Pope to visit Turkey in spite of a strong presence of terror organizations within the highly Muslim populated Turkey.
Should Pope Benedict keep his scheduled visit to highly populated Islamic nations in November 2006, or is it too soon to make a full evaluation for the safety and security of the Pope.
There once was an attempt on the life of Pope John Paul by a terrorist, in Rome. Would the trip to Turkey or any other Muslim nation be advisable?
Is it too much of a risk for Pope Benedict to visit Muslim nations in November of 2006?
Your thoughts.
