I am all for religious tolerance, but am slightly unsure how to react to this story. The fact that the POPE has to ask Iran to give its people the right to religion is slightly offsetting. It kind of reminds me of an independent person's parent going up to a store and asking if their kid could have the job. While it might be difficult, I feel that it is a person/group's own responsibility to gain freedom by coming together themselves and acting.
I'm not saying people shouldn't get help with their resume or looking for jobs in the newspaper (sticking with the analogy), but it feels wrong to have other people fight for their cause.
