hello all

Can people explain to me why he should be mourned at the level he is being mourned at?

And please dont show me how many times hes travelled around the world.

This thread reminds me of the RIP Ronald Reagan thread. Everyone was so sad.. but didnt know why... only becuase they were an public figure.

Remember.. i dont take a liking to people who want me to suffer becuase i dont beleive in their god

Nobody should or shouldn't be mourned. For me, he was always someone I looked up to as kind person with good morals. He was a father figure to (as I've said before) one billion Catholics worldwide. To add to that, he was also Polish, and helped rid Poland of communism, and got shot for it, so obviously Polish Catholics mourn him in a whole different way.

Not all Popes have been good people. Many have exploited the church for its money and have lived like kings, doing nothing more than sitting at the Vatican. His travels have a lot to do with the type of person he was. He wanted to meet as many people as possible, see as much of the world as possible, bless as many children as possible, etc... He was the people's Pope, that is why he is and will be mourned this way.

If you want to know about his achievements I suggest you do some research about him.

I'm not the greatest Polish catholic but I do have my faith and the passing of the Pope has deeply touched me This is 1 of the reasons why I had to quite my plans for the night.

I remember seeing him at the World Youth Day here in Toronto. It was raining as I walked there, and most people had umbrellas or rain ponchos. But when the service started, the rain stopped, the clouds cleared up, and the sun came out.

I'm sad.

HAY HOW DO I POST ON THIS INTERNET

Yes, Pope John Paul II was a great man, and massive respect to him. However, some of you are not realizing that not everybody here is Catholic, and therefore really cares about this event.

Come on folks. Lets bring TOTA together. I love all of you girls and guys. No, I'm not on drugs or anything. We just need to stop arguing and taking posts on THE INTERNET seriously.

<3 TOTA <3

Maybe I'm not seeing the whole picture though. If not, let's blame our friend Alexander Keith.

what does being Catholic have to do with anything ? not everyone who's posting something meaningful in this thread is necessarily Catholic, or even religious for that matter..

it wouldn't matter if it was the Dalai Lama , Princess Diana , etc. or any other public figure who tried to use their position to help make the world a better place .. people are gonna talk about it

with all the other 234982359544 pointless threads that litter TOTA, what does it matter that some people here post their thoughts about this ?

Perhaps it was divine intervention? ...I watched it on TV and you know that he loved seeing & being surrounded by so many young people...like I said before...He'll be a hard act to follow.

some people seem to take things seriously when they're about a serious subject matter

Posted by richard raiban on Apr-03-2005 18:57:

the bottomline is, people who mourn are those who had a connection with the person who passed away. if maxtuh's parents or cyrus kings god DJ tiesto passed away i wouldnt GIVE A SHIT because they had no impact on my life HOWEVER, out of RESPECT to their feelings, i would just avoid the thread all together (assuming there was one). if i did have questions i would inquire in a respectful way. why? because others ARE affected by this and you/we have to take that into consideration & respect that....YOU HAVE TO RESPECT THAT. there is a right way of doing things and clearly both members i mentioned above approached this the wrong way...

just my thoughts,

goodnight!

are you plain stupid? don't you know when to let go, grow up

Posted by StereoPrincess on Apr-03-2005 21:07:

i'm not that religious either but JPII definitely had an energy about him and when i saw him out my window on the streets of my city in poland, i was immediately linked to him. such an aura around him. really trying to make the world a better place in the best way he knew how, selflessly. you all should be as luck to know of such people and learn from them.

it really makes me sad that there are malicious people that ON PURPOSE turned this thread into being about THEM and how THEIR life is so inconvenienced that the Pope's life is being celebrated in the media. Suck it up! Live with it, because the rest of us have to live with all you here in Earth.

do you always keep threatning people ONLINE? and whining like a 8 yr old.

you sound the same to me

Posted by fiya on Apr-03-2005 22:41:

maybe for some of us, it hit home. in my case, as i said in the first page, my grandpa has parkinsons. the pope dying from complications with parkinsons (and a whole lot of other issues) reminds me my grandpa is so ill, and he gets worse and worse every week. the battle is hard.
that is my explanation.

negative people in this thread please fly the coop.
