A year after the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York, Pope John Paul II was criticised for asking God to "show mercy and forgiveness for the authors of this horrible terror attack".
He was demonstrating the spiritual attitude that Christians must have towards others. Christians are commanded to "love our enemies" and "pray for those who persecute us".
