Pope Francis beautiful statement on Islam and violence. “Faced with disconcerting episodes of violent fundamentalism, our respect for true followers of Islam should lead us to avoid hateful generalizations, for authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Quran are opposed to every form of violence.” Since it is tucked inside paragraph #253―one calling for religious freedom for Christians in Muslim countries―readers can be forgiven for overlooking it. But why is this line significant? And now that ISIS has advanced into Iraq, why might the sentence deserve attention? uscatholic.org/articles/201410/pope-francis%E2%80%99-overlooked-sentence-important-statement-islam-and-violence-29502
