The facts remain. There is a world wide religion that has one of the largest elements of fundamentalists. Islam. And to go along with these fundamentalisms, which does not necessarily have to be a bad word, comes a very bad offshoot... Total intolerance of others belief systems. And to square that bad combination of fundamentalism and intolerance, comes the belief in violence towards others that do not share this belief system. There is not another worldwide religion, AT THIS TIME, that shows such a largescale widespread ingrained belief system that encompasses these 3 most volatile attributes coming together at one time. Houston we have an obvious malfunction. It is very clear to me.
This is not to say we do not find radical Christian and Hindu groups, we do. But the % of people that practice a nonviolent, tolerant, nonfundamentalist view of these religions is much larger. Although if the Pope does not have someone review his speeches before he spouts out hatred... He lost a heck of a lot of standing, apology or not... Speaking of that, the last apology that came from another worldwide religious leader that is spreading the word of Islam in Iran and places beyond was when...? And has he lost standing?
And the last time he was criticized so heavily by other Islamic nations that they forced him into an apology happened when?

I notice you mention radical Christian and Hindu groups and you have issues with Islam. Let me guess, you are Jewish. Well, they are just as crazy. All of them of full of lunatics. Religions is for irrational people. Doesn't matter which one. They are no different than the wacko scientologists.
