"He [JPII] is a living prophet."
Some prophet. We're still waiting for his springtime. As far as I can see it's still dead winter in the Church. Maybe the springtime can be declared a reality simply because the Pope says so. Meanwhile SSPX flourishes.
By the way, in view of the recent Iraqi election, maybe the Pope's prophesies were a little off there as well. He seemed to take it as a personal affront that Saddam Hussein was being dislodged from power.
LOL!
