WD45 Posted April 1, 2005 Report Posted April 1, 2005 In 1979 when the Pope visited Washington DC there was a motorcade through the city. There were a lot of souvenir vendors on the streets and money was rapidly changing hands, which is probably why I found a $20 bill in the middle of a busy sidewalk. It was my own papal miracle. I spent some of it on "Someday My Prince Will Come" and since then I've always associated the Pope with that album. That is the best pope story I have heard yet! Quote

Edward Posted April 1, 2005 Report Posted April 1, 2005 I wish it would be a more liberal Pope, since I think most of the good things that came out of Vatican II have been undermined by JP II. But all accounts indicate that over time, JP II has advanced those who share his views and the Archbishops and Cardinals are much more conservative than they were 30 years ago. I think we should expect more of the same. I agree on all points. Quote
