Pell offends Muslims - again

From: AAP 

June 06, 2006 
 

CARDINAL George Pell has declared yet again Islam is more warlike than
Christianity, this time to a US Catholic newspaper.

The Catholic Archbishop of Sydney told the National Catholic Reporter
Australia hadn't been affected much by Islamic threat following the
September 11 terrorist attacks in the US, but this could change depending
"on how many terrorist attacks" Muslim fundamentalists could "bring off
successfully". 

In the interview conducted in Rome with NCR reporter John L Allen, Dr Pell
said "the million-dollar question" was whether intolerance was a modern
distortion of Islam or arose out of internal logic. 


"It's difficult to find periods of tolerance in Islam," Australia's top
Catholic was quoted as saying. 


"I'm not saying that they're not there, but a good deal of what is asserted
is mythical." 


It is the second time in a month that Dr Pell has made controversial remarks
about Islam. 


 
In early April, the religious leader commented that the Koran contained
"invocations to violence" and that Islam was an intolerant faith.
