ABOARD THE PAPAL PLANE - Pope Francis on Sunday defended his
avoidance of the term “Islamic violence” by suggesting the potential for
violence lies in every religion, including Catholicism.
“I don’t like to talk about Islamic violence, because every day, when I read the newspaper, I see violence,” Francis said, when asked about why he never speaks of Islamic terrorism or fundamentalism when condemning attacks such as the murder of a French priest last week, who had his throat slit by an Islamic terrorist as he was celebrating Mass.
