My Way News - Pope won't take part in common prayers
My Way News reports: "Pope Benedict XVI has invited Jews, Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims to a pilgrimage at the Umbrian hilltop town of Assisi, but the leaders won't take part in common prayers as they did when summoned for a daylong prayer for peace by Pope John Paul II 25 years ago."

Comment: I think the Pope is showing real courage here, going against the dominant mindset of the ecumenical movement that all roads lead to Rome God. Somehow I suspect that such a sensible stand will not be taken up by his successors.
