Quote by: Agent007 This quote by drpandit pretty much tells it all. POPE JOHN PAUL II was a great man, and hopefully, his legacy and spirit will reside throughout the Catholic Church in the future. The pope embodied the past line of Catholic traditionalism, starting with Jesus and the first pope, St. Peter. The pope embodied the present, with his reaction to current international events and his bond with all peoples. The pope embodied the future, with his hopes and actions for global peace and the ultimate end of all animosity and unethicality. God bless Pope John Paul II. Ad maiorem gloriam dei. |
i don't know why.. but every time i'd see him speak, i'd get that tingly feeling.. i distinctly remember his speech preceding the millenium where he spoke out against materialistic greed and selfishness.. promoting peace, sacrifice and humility instead.. he made me proud to be a catholic.
