Rocco DiPippo asks at FrontPageMag.com, "When did Christians storm government buildings threatening to behead blasphemous artists?"
As horrible as the response to the 'Danish cartoons' have been, should we be surprised? Wisdom knows her enemy.
I interviewed Philip Lawler, editor of Catholic World News and asked him these questions:
What did the Vatican say about the cartoons?
Did the statement chastise the violent protestors?
Could the statement lead to reconciliation?
What is the Vatican’s comment on the Turkish priest’s killing?
Has the Pope said anything about these matters?
Amidst Muslim violence that escalated with stonings in Beirut, the burning of Western Embassy buildings, and the killing of Turkish Priest Andrea Santaro, the Vatican responded, and an Iranian newspaper announced its contest for 'Holocaust cartoons.'
