About That Immeasurably Important Former Argentinian Bishop

Why The Pope Chose Francis


Pope Francis communicates with Muslims 
and is trying to prevent a modern holy war. 

As the archbishop of Buenos Aires, 
he became the friend of the city’s Muslim sheik, 
visiting his mosque and praying at his funeral. 

As pope, Francis has praised the Koran and said 
Christians can learn from its spirituality. 

By contrast with those who condemn the Koran without reading it, 
the pope said in his major statement so far, The Joy of the Gospel, 
that “authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran 
are opposed to every form of violence.”
