Regardless of what one thinks of his proclamations, Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II) has led a remarkable life and has been at the forefront of numerous efforts to make the world a better place. Although it seems many here disagree with his often conservative social outlook, the Pope has striven to reach out to all those in need, and has brought about great change in the Catholic Church. Although there is room to disagree with some of the things he has said in the past, Pope John Paul II has truly been a force for peace and love in the world, which is something I don't think anyone will want to disagree with.
With all due respect, this thread was created in order to pay respect to the man. I would ask that this "April Fools" discussion on the matter be discontinued.
