The Pope, part 2

As I've already mentioned, as a Lutheran I cannot understand how Catholics are reacting to the passing of Pope John Paul II. All I can say that this man was truly a giant of history. I'm sure that this is particularly difficult on Polish Catholics, as this man was nearly a patron saint for them. My prayers right now are for all Catholics, and particlarly Polish Catholics, as the Church chooses its new leader. As for the the Pope, I have a certain joy in my heart for him; after all, this is a man who has now entered God's Kingdom.
