Your post implies that there may have been some nefarious plot by the communists to enthrone John Paul as the Pope. Let's, for the sake of argument, say that this is true. God's ways are not our ways. It appears that God willed that this man be the Pope. He was duly elected by the College of Cardinals.

You underestimate the power and presence of evil within the College of Cardinals. From John XXIII to present the college has been stacked to elect another Wojtyla or worst.

Our Heavenly Father isn't in the business of interfering in the 'free will' of those placed in the top leadership roles of His Church. Although they may have achieved their posts by deceit, once anointed, the when, where, what and how they act or fail to act covertly or overtly is their 'free will'. But rest assured there are no free passes to His Kingdom.

Every Roman Catholic has a duty to expose contamination within The One True Faith. Every 'Christian' made aware of the One True Faith, but decides to refuse conversion will likewise answer for their 'free will' decision. Conversion is essential to salvation, because God said so. There will not be an ACLU on judgment day to defend against the Will of God.

What we do or don't do in response to our awareness of evil within the walls of His Church falls once again into the realm of 'free will'. Rest assured The Blessed Trinity has an accounting of each of our failings to rise above vanity and defend The Faith. Our actions and our unwillingness to act according to His Will awaits our judgment.

Yesterday a Christian in Saudi Arabia chose to deny The Blessed Trinity in order to save his life. May God have mercy on his soul.

"what and how they act or fail to act covertly or overtly is their 'free will'. But rest assured there are no free passes to His Kingdom."

This reminds me of what Christ said "to him who much is given, much is expected in return" (rough paraphrase)

Many think this is in reference to the rich, but what is worldly things to God. I wonder if the spiritual gifts are not the real point here. If i am right then the small hairs on the back of the neck of priest, bishops, cardinals and even Popes should stand on end in fear over what they have done to the Church.
Pray for them
