Me? Sticking up for the pope? If there was a hell, I'd ask someone to check the temperature there...

Where in the Koran does it instruct to exterminate all Christians?

From what I know about history, Islamic theocracies had time and again been far more tolerant of other religions than Christian theocracies.

I vaguely recall part of Koran instructing to NOT be violent toward other religions, but to be respectful.

Is this what you're referring to?

Qur'an 29:46-47 Surah Al-Ankabut (The Spider)

And dispute ye not with the People of the Book except with means better (than mere disputation) unless it be with those of them who inflict wrong (and injury): but say "We believe in the Revelation which has come down to us and in that which came down to you; Our Allah and your Allah is one; and it is to Him we bow (in Islam)."

And thus (it is) that We have sent down the Book to thee. So the People of the Book believe therein as also do some of these (pagan Arabs): and none but Unbelievers reject Our Signs.

Perhaps. Perhaps it is addressed in a few places, too. Thank you.
