Extremism must not be met
with similar extremism, Pope Francis said at his weekly general
audience Wednesday.
"Today religious freedom and freedom of conscience must
reckon with two opposed but equally threatening ideologies:
secularist relativism and religious radicalism, in fact
pseudo-religious," he said.
"In this regard I will just bring to your attention the real
danger of fighting extremism and intolerance with equal
extremism and intolerance, also in attitudes and words".
The pope was speaking to participants in the international
meeting of Catholic lawmakers.
