Hypocrisy

Submitted by Cristina (Canada), Sep 17, 2006 at 14:16

I am writing about how the Muslim Faith reacted when Pope Benedict XVI cited the words of a Byzantine emperor who characterized some of the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, Islam's founder, as "evil and inhuman." They took to the streets in such anger.

My question is why is it when Jesus Christ' name is lambasted in the cruelest of fashions the Muslem Faith do not react at all. Is Jesus not a Prophet to them also??
