KAZAKSTAN, POPE CONDEMNS TERRORISM, BEGS GOD TO PREVENT WAR
- ASTANA,
Kazakstan (CNS) -- From the steppes of Central Asia, a region where
the United States and Islamic militants appeared headed for
confrontation, Pope John Paul II begged God to prevent war and
condemned acts of terrorism carried out in the name of religion.
Visiting
the former Soviet republic of Kazakstan Sept. 22-25, the pope
reached out to the Muslim majority and asked them to join Christians
in building a "civilization of love" that rejects violence
and hatred.
-
With apprehension growing over possible armed conflict in the
wake of terrorist attacks in the United States, the pope told his
audience in Kazakstan: "I beg God to keep the world in
peace."
-
"From this place, I invite both Christians and Muslims
to raise an intense prayer to the one, almighty God whose children
we all are, that the supreme good of peace may reign in the
world," he said, switching from Russian to English at the end
of an outdoor Mass Sept. 23 in the Kazak capital, Astana.
-
Referring to the suicide hijackings that left more than 6,000
dead in the United States, the pope said: "We must not let what
has happened lead to a deepening of divisions. Religions must never
be used as a reason for conflict."
