JP II

He’s been the head of the Roman Catholic communion ever since I was a Baptist, a senior in high school. Anyone who knows me knows I’m no ecumenist. I’ve never wavered, however, in my belief that Pope John Paul II is a good man. He has led his flock through some tumultuous times. He was the first media Pope. He has stood firm on unpopular positions and still managed to stay in the positive spot light. And travel … my goodness! There’s no comparison, But. Like Reagan and Carson, I’m sure the MSM has bios ready to roll when JP II breathes his last. Yet for now, I’m bold enough to pray God’s mercy and weak enough to covet his prayers.
