VATICAN CITY (AP) - Pope John Paul II, the Polish pontiff who led the Roman Catholic Church for more than a quarter century and became history's most-traveled pope, died Saturday night in his Vatican apartment. He was 84.
"The angels welcome you," Vatican TV said after the announcement came from papal spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Valls.
"The Holy Father died this evening at 9:37 p.m. (2:37 p.m. EST) in his private apartment. All the procedures outlined in the apostolic Constitution 'Universi Dominici Gregis' that was written by John Paul II on Feb. 22, 1996, have been put in motion," Navarro-Valls said.

He was a good man, RIP.Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

I respected him because he had balls and stuck to his beliefs and core values REGARDLESS public opinion. He didnt take a focus group poll before stating the way he thought things should be.
He even said once in an interview, "church doctrine doesnt change for public opinion".
Its a shame our politians cant be more like he was.
I hope the next one is as good a man.polkaudio sound quality competitor since 2005

Regardless of your religious pursuation, you would have to agree that a great man has passed on. Rest in PeaceThere is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

What does it really matter?
A great man has gone and we are lucky to have witnessed his insight.
