What a great Pope, great man (dare I say great saint?)

When do you suppose the cause for him will be taken up? Soon, I think.

First .... he must die. Let's not rush the process ;-D

Statements like this completely amaze me. Have you ever heard of purgatory? When John Paul II dies, I will pray for his soul and I hope others do as well. There is nothing more important to those poor souls in Purgatory than for the faithful to be praying for their release.

Rallying around the canonization cause prior to a person even being dead is not Catholic.
