The Pope condemns ISIS attacks on Christians and calls on Muslim leaders to take a stronger stand

Pope Francis condemned ISIS attacks on Christians and other religions minorities in Iraq and Syria during a speech in Turkey today.

The pontiff also reached out to Muslim leaders, by urging them to take a stronger stand against terrorists who use religion to justify their heinous actions.

As he landed in the capital of Ankara on Friday, the pope reaffirmed that military force was justified to stop ISIS, but called for greater dialogue between people of all faiths to end fundamentalism.

let's fund a Federal Agency and decide whose adherence to what religion is wrong.. Fascists really have a hard time containing themselves
