Ken, surely you are not ignorant of the role of the "Devil's Advocate"? So why be surprised that the case for sainthood, too, has its advocates?

Oh, I'm not surprised there are advocates for sainthood for Pope John Paul II. I'd be more surprised if he doesn't reach the status of "saint" within the Catholic church. IMO sainthood for him was a done-deal the moment he died.
BTW.....GO STEELERS!
Good luck to your team this weekend. I'm rooting for them to win.
