.- The Archbishop of Caracas, Cardinal Jorge Urosa Sabino, took issue this week with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez’s remarks before the UN General Assembly in which he called President Bush “a devil,” saying people should not be referred to with such expressions.
During a radio program the cardinal emphasized the need for adversaries to seek out a path to peace and understanding. He also said the comments by Pope Benedict XVI at the University of Ratisbona had been distorted, thus underscoring the need for dialogue between faith and reason.
The cardinal maintained the Pope’s words were taken out of context and used to give the impression he was attacking Islam.
