Pope John Paul ll has passed away. He will be missed for his moral leadership and his unending efforts in easing the misery the downtrodden of the world. He did more to try to bring people of all faiths together than any Pope in living memory. May he find peace in Gods gentle embrace.
I plead for people of all faiths pray that the Conclave of the College of Cardinals show wisdom in selecting the successor to the throne of St. Peter.
Even if your not Catholic, the choice of the next Pontiff can conceivably affect all of us, for good or ill. Pope John Paul ll showed what an impact that the Papacy can have on world affairs, and the position requires that the man chosen as God's Vicar on Earth be a man of the greatest wisdom and political ability possible to help guide us through these dangerous times.
