    It's pathetic that a Pope who demanded that his followers stringently "stick to the rules" now has his followers throw the rulebook out the window in order to honor him. Let's hope the next rule they throw out is the no-condom one.

    Well, he did "get" his second miracle. In both cases people prayed to him and they were cured from Parkinsons and the other recovered from a severe brain injury.

    As someone who goes to church every weekend, the idea of a anyone tolerating and/or ignoring several years of sexual abuse by those he led does not seem to jibe with "sainthood."
