...political level, the Pope’s trip might help Erdogan’s government escape the deadlocked European Union accession talks on issues like Cyprus. More importantly, it might achieve the ecumenical ideal of inter-civilizational dialogue in the ever-burning Middle East. This trip is more important than it seems. The Pope is stepping outside of his comfort zone, and this is definitely commendable. Our post-9/11 world can only benefit from an embrace of ecumenism.

...Chief hat for his helmet as the Roman Catholic Church's Diplomat Maximus. It is largely new terrain for the 79-year-old Pontiff, a trained theologian who spent two decades in the Vatican working on doctrinal matters. The terrestrial exigencies of diplomacy will touch on both geopolitics and inter-religious relations during the four-day visit, as Turkey is both 98% Muslim and the historic home of a competing Eastern branch of Christianity. Everything, of course, will be amplified in the wake of Benedict's now famous September speech about faith and violence that simultaneously angered much...
