Scared.

| A few days ago Pope Benedictus publicly quoted the 14th-century Byzantine emperor, Manuel II Paleologus ("Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread the sword by the faith he preached"). Due to massive Islamic agression about this, yesterday he (the Pope) explained that the intention of quoting Paleologus was to initiate a dialoge between Islam and Christianity - NOT the increase the agression in between. My thought: "I get scared thinking of the Pope, that his role still exist in our modern society and if he isn't mature enough to handle these big questions within a global society."
