The Holy Father was one of the most visable, most respected, and most loved people in human history. He will go down in history as John Paul the Great. Over 200 heads of state attended his funeral. Given that, I found the amount of television coverage most appropriate.
Anna :D
GREAT????????????? :o What was so great about him? To the liberals, he was a liberal. To the conservatives, he was a conservative. He was all things to all men. He kissed the Koran, for Gawd's sakes! The Koran has an extremely minimising and error-laden view of Our Lord God and Saviour, Jesus Christ, and this shmo goes to the mosque in Rome and kisses that book of the damned.( I wonder if that technically excommunicated him ?) He held several ecumenical 'worship services' at the Basilica off St. Francis with animists, Buddhists, the Dali Lama(Hello Dolly), and a statue of Buddha was placed on the altar!! Blasphemy!!! Everyone was praying to their own god, of course: Alvin, Budd-ha, the great shpirit, that demonic elephant....yikes!!!! :o He did NOTHING about his own Church falling apart! He went to some Far Easty country and allowed some Hindu priestess to smear cow dung on his forehead, marking him as a follower of Shiva!
And this man was great? If this was great, I'll take strawberry. I mean, he should rest in peace and all that, but oy vay already. Now. they're clamouring to make him a Saint. It would be funny if it were not so tragic.
