“We no longer stand alongside or in opposition to one another. Thus faith is a force for peace and reconciliation in the world: Distances between people are overcome, in the Lord we have become close.”
Pope Benedict XVI
Note: The Pope said this after he poured holy water over Magdi Allam’s head in a baptism at a Vatican Easter service in Latin. Magdi Allam is an Egyptian-born, non-practicing Muslim who is married to a Catholic, and he converted to Catholicism on Saturday.
