Rome - Terrorists are scoring frequent successes in using God as an instrument against the West, Pope Benedict XVI said Friday in his Castel Gandolfo retreat near Rome. Addressing an international delegation of centrist and Christian Democrat lawmakers, the pope said that some terrorist networks were "shamelessly" exploiting the accusation that modern society had forgotten God and were attempting to justify their threat to global security with that accusation. Terrorism was a serious problem and its supporters showed "an inexcusable contempt for human life," Benedict said. An appropriate level of respect for religion helped to counter the accusation that God had been forgotten, while terrorism should be fought decisively and effectively, the pontiff said.

According to the History of the RCC.If
the Pope of Rome has the right to talk,
I also have the right to tell the Story
of William Tyndale. Pope Martin used Terror to stop the Printing of the True
word of God. He failed. the same as this German Man will fail. Gods word is
out and in the Hearts of the true Believer. God said My word shall not pass away. Rev: 17 will end the control
that the RCC thinks they have on earth.
This is my third attempt to have my say on this jubject. Thanks to william Tyndale who gave his life that i may Know. He did not Die in-vain. If the Pope has a right under the Global Rule of Law, so do i to tell the full story
about the Apostate Organization of Vatican City Rome. Your web is not needed to teach the truth of Gods Word.! Roy C. H. USA ! ! !
