Benedict the sixteenth …. What does he want? By: Essam Derbala
When Benedict the pope talked about Islam and the prophet peace and blessings be upon him, it immediately came to my mind the personality of Hassaballa the sixteenth and who does know him among us.
Hassaballa the sixteenth is a funny personality, has a true shade, it expresses the owner of a loser music band but he thinks that he is the most known artist by humanity, his tones are the best and more beautiful tones. The problem is that the audiences don't always get this genius and can't digest this modern music. So funeral became the occasion that Hassaballa and his band could express this genius.
Hassaballa the sixteenth is a loser in the eyes of every body but genius in his own eyes. So as the pope Benedict who thinks himself genius through his nonsense talk while he is in fact a loser, he is a loser because he attacks Islam hiding behind the argument of the Byzantium emperor Manuel the second, this alleged argument with a Persian literate Muslim, he pours his attacks on the contradiction between Islam and the mind regarding what Islam presents about Allah and his nature and the legality of Jihad (holy fighting). This accusation in fact is the secret of the pope's failure because the problem that faces Christians is contradicting the phases of its believe with the mind, it insists to present Jesus –peace be upon him – as Allah or the son of Allah, when they try to find a convenient solution for this say; the father, the son, and the holy spirit, one god and when they assume that 3=1 , that is what can't be understandable by adults before youth people, we will speak about the matter in details in the following article.
The arrow of the pope missed its way and returned back to him to reveal the intellectual contradiction that is clear in the beliefs of the pope who dealt with Islam in this situation according to the sayings: - (she poisoned me and ran away smoothly). But away of the papal failure we should search for the papal goal, but first let us know more about the pope Benedict the sixteenth, this knowledge will help up to know his aims and directions.
Who is Benedict the sixteenth?!!
The cardinal Ratinger sat on the papal chair in Rome to be the chief of the catholic church in 19-4-2005, after his ancestor the previous one John Pole the second, Joseph Alwis Ratinger was born on 16-4-1927 for a catholic family in Bavaria in Germany, he expresses his wish to enter the religion field as a priest while he was sixteenth, he joined Hitler Nazi youth in 1941 that is why some people accused him of being Anti-Semitic.
Ratinger studied religion science in the university and got his PHD in 1953 and professorship in 1957, he became the chief bishop in Regensburg, he knew his ancestor john pole the second before he reached the papal chair in 1978, then he became the right hand of the pope and took the responsibilities of what is called (the association of belief affairs) that is the name which was chosen for the association in charge of proving the accusation of becoming heretic (misbeliever) to those who are waiting for the church judgment.
His religious situation; as for the religious situations of the pope Benedict we can talk about it under more than one title:
1- On the level of his churchail point of view Benedict is counted on the conservative party that refuses sexual abnormality, and refuses women to get high priestly position, he thinks that catholic are the only good and true believers that means he charges the orthodox and protestant with impiety.
2- As for his situation regarding Jews, Benedict justified his sharing in Hitler youth group saying that recruitment and joining the army, was compulsory, but this matter remained as a pressure on him and a motive for him to prove that he is innocent of being Anti-Semitic, that was translated all over his life in many situations such as:-
To stand against the conflict between Jews and the catholic church which he started himself before getting the papal position, and that results him to declare the Jews innocent of the Christ's blood.
Many other declarations the same way after being the pope of Rome in addition to what he said as an answer to the congratulations of the Jewish rabbi in Rome: (with the start of my papal position I ask help from Allah the almighty to let the talk and co-operation with my sons and daughters of the Jewish people continue). Benedict also refers to the common spiritual heritage between Christians and Jews, its roots extended to the eternal, immortal promise of Allah which reflects new expected horizons, to support the relationship between the Jews and Vatican.
3- His attitude towards Islam: it is naivety to think that the pope beliefs in the truthfulness of Islam or the prophet of Islam --peace be upon him- or is convinced of its legislation, the announced and declared situation of the pope is the same of the Vatican which was stated in 1965 and differentiates between announcing the appreciation and respect to Muslims who belief in one God, but not to respect Islam as a religion or to appreciate its beliefs or to consider it as a way of many accepted ways to worship Allah.
This differentiating is the explanation of what Benedict the pope announced in more than one occasion to show his refusal to Islam as a belief or as a political existence that increases day after another. Examples of this:
A- The pope Benedict' answers angrily, before he got the papal position to a question of one of the Pakistani Muslims about the tendency of Islam to developing, and claimed that Islam doesn't have this tendency because the religious text in Islam ties any action unlike Christians and Judaism.
B- The pope Benedict refusal, the next day of being chosen for the papal position , turkey Muslims to join the Christian European union.
C- What the pope lately said in 12-9-2006 in a lecture in Jonesburg university in Germany with the title of (faith and the mind) hiding in expressing his own point of view behind the argument happened between the Byzantium emperor Manuel Bilbo Logos the second and a Muslim knight in 1391 G, to state through his lecture some points that make Christianity better than Islam which are:
•The prophet of Islam only brought what is evil.
•The holy fighting (Jihad) conception is contradicting to the mind and against the nature of Allah who refuses to compels religion by force.
•Islam sees that the nature of Allah may be away of mind and wisdom because Allah's will is not bound of any to them.
All these opinions and situations made us contemplate the words of the French writer (Isabel Shamela), she said after the electing of Benedict: Islam is the first thing that targeted by the new pope!!!!
But, why now ? What was mentioned before about the history of Benedict is considered one of the important keys that help us to reveal the secret of his choice of that time for this cheap onset and insult to Islam.
First, we should say that this choice for the title of the lecture (faith and mind) and this quotation of the Byzantium emperor argument was not out of the moment or just come to his mind, but was planned and determined on purpose with premeditation, then the answer to the question why now will be a very important matter and definitely will help us to know the answer of the other important question; what does he want??
To talk about the secret of choosing that time will necessarily lead us to realize the relationship between what happens in the world today and the declaration of the pope.
Benedict knows the goals and effects of the barbarian war started by the administration of the American president George Bush on Iraq and Afghanistan and knows very well the favorite plan of Bush which aims at changing the Islamic identity in the Islamic world through suborning it to the western culture under the name of the big Middle East.
Benedict knows very well the religious tends of the American president with whom he agrees that the western culture is the best and should win, they also agree that this culture is the common heritage between Christianity and Judaism, no one can separate the declaration of the pope to flatter the Jews and describe them as partner in this heritage.
We can’t also ignore the relationship between this declaration and Benedict's visit to Turkey in the coming November 2006, during which he will meet Orthodox Church leaders and that explains why the pope uses the argument of the Byzantium emperor in his lecture to attack Islam which the pope wants to present as an enemy to the whole Christianity.
Lastly, the pope used his lecture to face the increasing number of Christians who adopt Islam so he presented a false picture about Islam and thought is might be convincing.
What does Benedict want??
We can't just consider Benedict's lecture as sophism with a number of academic people because, in fact it involves special meanings and reveals goals and aims which is very far from being sophism.
He wanted to gather all parties together against Islam offering at the same time the religious basis for the Jews and Christians to stand against Islam which is opponent to rationalism and to common heritage for the Jews and Christians and pours in the direction of supporting Bush in his evil plan against the Islamic world.
So we can say that the pope Benedict wanted to send more than one message to achieve this goal. He wanted to send a supporting message to the American president in spite of the difference between their religious beliefs, just to support his project which aims at imposing total hegemony of the western culture over the Islamic world. Benedict wanted to send a message to the protestant and orthodox churches that Islam is the mutual enemy which they have to unify against.
Benedict wanted to unify the Jews with the Christian world against Islam and to prove the belief of his followers in facing the extensions of Islam when he mentioned these nonsense and showed the difference between Islam and Christianity in an attractive way, in very meaningful and brightening terms, whereas they lack concept and deprived of truth and logic.
Dangerous goals and evil purposes; no body doubts the danger of these goals and the wickedness of these purposes and the cunning people who stand behind them, by this, the pope puts two religious bases for the cultural conflict and given the support for president Bush to continue in his compassion against Islam which will let Benedict get rid of the Islamic condition which worries him, but through the blood of the Americans and the protestants.
Will Benedict the sixteenth succeed? In our evaluation the pope ambitions will vanish for three reasons:
First: the difference in creed and doctrine which reaches to the extend of expiation between the three big churches, I mean catholic, protestant and Orthodox.
Second: the American and European, people and government, do not desire to give back life to the role of the pope in running the politic affairs after they have got rid of the church power since more than a century.
Third: the wakefulness and consciousness that the declaration causes in the hearts and minds of Muslims and make them stronger, harder and more aware and understanding in facing the ambitions of the church, in addition to the fakery of the pope declaration about Islam which is like fake money, people may be cheated by it, but can't spend it, only fool people can.
Then the pope Benedict will think to be one of the callers of talk and debates between cultures instead of being a caller of conflict and war, will the pope revise himself and his situation? Will he be the pope of peace?
