Polar Opposites

Some things just strike me as funny... like popping onto the Fox News website to see one pic of the pope visiting Turkey flanked by another picture of Britney Spears hanging out with Paris Hilton. Nothing screams opposite ends of the moral spectrum than those two pictures side by side...

In the mean time, Pope Benedict is certainly an impressive figure. In such a volatile time between clashing faiths, the pope is venturing to Turkey, who's 72 million people only contain 32,000 Catholics. So, his mission is far greater than stirring up support from the Catholic masses (as there aren't really enough people to be considered as such), but instead to bridge the gaps creating violence between faiths.

Talk about walking into the lion's den!

I strongly suggest you visit this great special website hosted by the Catholic News Agency about the pope's trip, the history and the reasons behind it all. Great info.
