Did the Pope intend what his words would do, drive the rent-a-mobs to the street, because, suggests the Anchoress, he was playing cosmic chess, making a supernatural challenge to their Islamist masters, as one believer to another, to reconsider their actions and put down their swords?
"According to the Associated Press, as she lay dying, Sr. Leonella Sgorbati followed the example of her lord, murmuring, ‘I forgive, I forgive…’ about her murderers. That is an action of grace; it is supernatural in origin. Her death will have repercussions throughout the world, as will the Pope’s speech – as will any attempt on his life – and none of it will reflect well on Islam, which may finally be forced to look within to identify its enemies."
