And maybe you would do good to yourself not to Jade yourself because of the past, PJP II is a great theologian, a brilliant reformer, and an all around good human being.

At any rate doesn't look to good, PJP has been mired with various sicknesses and disease for a long time, on top of the parkinsons he has. Me thinks that we will be getting a new pope...
I guess.

Still seems like an obsession to me. An outdated adherence to silly traditions and unneccessary rules. But then, that's how I view Catholicism in general.

I guess that comes from being raised in a non-denominational Christian church.. I view the Bible as the highest moral authority, not some human.
