Pope Benedict to meet with Muslims
Pope Benedict XVI has invited representatives of Muslim countries to meet next week at his summer residence, the Vatican said Friday.
The Holy Father will meet Monday with ambassadors from predominantly Muslim countries. A Muslim council that advised the Italian government on integration issues also was expected to participate.
The Vatican has been seeking to defuse anger across the Muslim world that followed the pope's remarks about Islam last week in Germany.
The Holy Father said Sunday that he was “deeply sorry” about the reactions to his remarks and that they did not reflect his own opinions. Earlier this week, he said his comments were open to misinterpretation and that he had “deep respect” for Islam.
