He helped out at the Gas chambers saving lives, this was close to his heart, he was from poland ya know. Also, Iraqi people are more rebels than anything else. He has done the most for religion since ooh i dunno.. a carpenters son got put up on a cross to save humanity.

Just because of your beliefs you can't dismiss other religious leaders, that's just for catholics really

he was in the polish resistance- which means he was resisting nazi rule in poland and saving jews from ghettos. iraqi's are fighting because they are revolting against US and British Troops, they want freedom. and then of course theres always palestine and the saddam hussain factor- though that has now diminished with his demise..

Wow, talk about oversimplifying to a rediculous extent. Do you have any idea how complicated the situation in the middle east is? It goes back to centuries and centuries of conflict and hate. How could you possibly expect one man to be able to solve the problem. The fact that he even made a tiny scratch on the surface of them problem is a huge testimony to how much he accomplished in life. On a side note, I'm not remotely religious, at all, so don't think that I'm writing this because I feel obligated to defend him from a religious standpoint. I do however follow the situation in the middle east, and not only the present situation, but the history of the conflict and the major events from the past few decades. Judging by your post, you barely have even the slightest idea of how complex the problem really is.

I heard he had like Parkinson's but I doubt that because he kept travelling until he died, yes very, very sad.

Well Im not making such a huge fuss over it as everyone else, but you gotta admire him for that. I still think its amazing he got to his age with Parkinsons, let alone to manage to give a last message to everyone...

Yes, I'm also Orthodox BlackTShirtGirl? and my Kum had Parkinsons for over 30 years and I don't believe he could have EVER travelled anywhere or even spoken for that matter..Yeah, he died on my birthday as a matter of fact, one of the things in my life that I find truly freaky.
BUT, the Pope truly was a great man, he'll be missed..the next pope will be evil, I can feel it in my blood.
