It's my understanding that he has fought against the UN's "reproductive health" policies. As for modernism, calling its consequences a "culture of death" seems pretty gosh awful vigorous to me. I agree the pope could be greater as you suggest, who couldn't be? Nonetheless, I am grateful for God having put Karol Wojtyla where He did.
could you tell me how to pronounce the Pope's last name? I was born after his election and have never heard his last name ever said.
OK. Let's go one step beyond all the sappy talk and tell us exactly why you are grateful.
