An affront of this magnitude by a pontiff is extremely rare, and I can't imagine why this pope would choose to make a statement such as this. His "apology" that he didn't believe the comments himself, appeased no one.
If he didn't believe it, why make the statement at all?
I believe Will is correct that some religious bigotry slipped out. I believe he will need to do more to mend the damage.
