Nice innuendo there without source. IMO, it is very likely that the Catholic Church will eventually beatify Pope John Paul II as a Saint of the Church and formally as John Paul II the Great! (which he's already known as among 'serious' Catholics).
You are correct though, you may be kind and quietly forget him. Catholics would appreciate that.
Not one bit of innuendo. See post 27.
You will not today or any other day defend John Paul II without also having to defend bth the pedophilia that occured under his watch and his refusal to make those who were harmed whole.
Several groups of those harmed petitioned him directly. This is not going away and neither you personally nor anyone else can separate the good things he did from this very, very inexcusable thing.
If the Catholic Church chooses to beatify him in the face of this it will have a very tough time justifying it to the rest of the world. It will be pretty much continuing to say what happened in Ireland and Boston and across the globe really, is okay.
