Maybe Pope John Paul was right.
He called Bush the Anti-Christ and if you look at the political upheaval, unprecedented corruption as well as the major natural disasters we are seeing, he may have something their. I am not that religious of a person, but its got me thinking.

1. Buscho
Is he the antichrist, or merely incompetent?

2. Pope John Paul II was right
I respected this pope. He went to * and told him, "You go to Iraq, you go without God."

Pope John Paul II was right as we are now witnessing.

* = the anti-christ. EVIL!

:kick:

7. I stay the hell away from "my fellow devout Catholics"
Edited on Thu Sep-22-05 12:08 PM by CountAllVotes
Sorry but the molestation thing finished me off.

I don't go anywhere near the place anymore.

I don't believe that John Paul II was a child molester, but all of those cases over all of those years ... sorry, I cannot let that go and I plan to never return to the Church.

I believe that Pope John Paul II must have known about it too. Now the Church is on a fag hunt thanks to Ratzinger. That will not solve this problem. The Catholic Church has "lost" me; it took that monsignor in San Francisco O'Shea to finish me off. I know that SOB. The "devout Catholics" can keep their little * boy and go Cheney themselves rather than an alter boy!

:grr:

5. As a fellow parkinson's suffer I got to hand it the guy
Even though I got kicked out of the church JP2 was one tough son of a buck. I mean I can barely make it thru episcopal mass for one hour and he had lead mass for x x x number of people. He was also against the war, for the enivronment and anti gun.
I never cared too much for his stance on gays, reproductive choice, and stem cell mind you but I have to give credit where credit is do.
May you rest in peace PJP the great - it's not you or the people in the pews am made at it ratzinger and his cardinal mafia that I have a problem with. Shame there were no good men like cardinal Bernadine of chicago left.

8. I agree
I have a problem myself and to me Pope JP was truly a great example of a disabled man that would not and did not give up until the end. May he rest in peace.
