Pope Blasts 'Childlike' Wars At Bahrain Interfaith Summit

With Russia’s war in Ukraine raging, Pope Francis joined Muslim, Christian, and Jewish leaders on November 4 in calling for the world’s great religions to work together for peace. He told an interfaith summit that religion must never be used to justify violence and that faith leaders must counter the “childlike” whims of the powerful to make war. On his second day in the Gulf kingdom of Bahrain, Francis closed out a conference on East-West dialogue sponsored by King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa. It was his second such conference in as many months, following one in Kazakhstan. To read the original story from AP, click here.
