In a "Humanitarian and brotherly Gesture" the Pope washed and kissed the feet of Muslim Refugees at the Holy Mass on Thursday to show solidarity and tolerance towards moderate Muslims who are victim of a bad reputation caused by Extremist suicide bombings. Traditionally, 12 Catholic men, recalling Jesus' 12 apostles, would be used in this ritual. The Holy Thursday rite re-enacts the foot-washing ritual Jesus performed on his apostles before being crucified, and is meant as a gesture of service.
This time, members from Hindu, Muslim, Orthodox and a few Catholic faith participated. Francis was the first pope to ever wash the feet of a non-Christian and initially broke the ancient tradition 3 years ago when he was elected head of the Catholic Church. He is also the first pope to use 4 women for the ritual, claiming equality under god is essential to faith.
A fraction of the 892 asylum-seekers currently living at the shelter attended, though others milled around nearby and filmed the event on their smartphones.
The pope just recently stirred controversy by claiming that all diligent Christians must open their arms and hearts for all Muslims, no matter how many will arrive. According to him, it must be the duty of every European to accept any number of refugees and accept them into their society while respecting their faith.

He was also the first pope to claim that Islam is equal to Christianity, that all people inherently want "nothing but peace" and that we must set aside our differences, especially concerning "territory" claimed by Christians. He claims that terrorists are but a tiny minority and should be ignored in the large picture as "most Muslims are peaceful".
The true victims of terrorism are Muslims - as their communities are haunted by radicals who taint the image of moderate Islam, so he claims.
2 days ago Brahim el-Bakraoui, Najim Laachraoui, Khalid el-b Akraoui and a 4th unknown suspect blew themselves up at the Brussels airport, killing 35 civilians and injuring hundreds. One of the suicide bombers was involved in the bomb-making of the 2015 French massacre. All were known to police prior to the attacks but every hint was systematically ignored by authorities.
