Well, I was speaking ironically.  The point is that by the Pope's definition of the word, Jesus would fit into the category of "rigorist."  So I think those of us who are the targets of the Pope's invective on that point are in pretty good company really.  As for the rest of your point, goodness, Jesus showed mercy to the woman and told her to stop sinning.  You really have to torture language and logic to come away with any other interpretation or understanding of that scene.
