excerpt said:
Islamic computer hackers reportedly tried to disrupt the Vatican web site last week, but failed.

In an online forum for militant Muslims, a previously unknown group had announced plans for an assault on the Vatican computer network, which was said to be a form of retribution for Pope Benedict's recent speech which was seen by many Muslims as an attack on Islam.

Police later confirmed that there had been a concerted effort by hackers to penetrate the Vatican site, but computer-security experts were able to detect and repel the attack.
Could it be that the religion of Perpetual Outrage has finally met its match? :) If anyone was going to stand up to their attacks, of course it would be the German Shepherd and his crack computer squad. :D

Most Mohammedans are clueless about Western culture. They are insensitive to our way of life, and they don't try to learn the reality of situations. This is their problem, not ours. Perhaps our prayers will lead to their understanding, in time, and to their conversions.

I don't think you appreciate just how ironic that comment is. By saying that Muslims are insensitive, you yourself demonstrate your own insensitivity.

"German Shepherd?"

Alright, that falls somewhere between rather witty and the corny pun of the papacy award.

:thumbsup: :p
He's been called that since the day he was chosen to lead the Church. I'm certainly not going to claim the credit for it.

And the Muslims say:

Most Christians are clueless about Middle Eastern and Islamic culture. They are insensitive to our way of life, and they don't try to learn the reality of situations. This is their problem, not ours. Perhaps our prayers will lead to their understanding, in time, and to their conversions.

Calling someone dishonest, demonstrates one's own dishonesty?
Calling someone lazy, demonstrates one's own laziness?

Your comment points out the absurdity of political correctness. Truth is not relative.

If I understand it correctly, he was making a blanket statement, saying that most Muslims are insensitive; the word 'most' is critical here. He wasn't just saying that some Muslims are insensitive (which is true of any religion), he was saying that most of them are.

That's pretty insensitive of you to point out how he is insensitive by pointing out Muslim insensitivity.

In Time of Danger

O God, Who knowest us to be set in the midst of such great perils, that, by reason of the weakness of our nature, we cannot stand upright, grant us such health of mind and body, that those evils which we suffer for our sins we may overcome through Thine assistance. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
