Unfortunately I have to disagree. Was the Ayatollah Khomenei just another religious leader? Pope Sixtus? Martin Luther? Saint Peter? Mohamed? Moses? Religious leaders do not just spout off in a vacuum, they have millions of FOLLOWERS, and thus have changed the world. And this is why I think this pope is dangerous---he is not just leading a flock, he has a defined political agenda, and it may just take hold, like the others
