Pope's Suffering and Things of Evil
Notice how the Pope is given suffering that is related to areas that Satan is pushing for? Do you think there is a reason for this?
1. The Pope has Parkinson's disease and embryonic stem cell research is touted as a possible way to help people with Parkinson's.
2. The feeding tube was removed from Terri Schiavo to kill her and the Pope is being fed through a tube (now through his nose but talk is that one may be inserted into his stomach)

Absolutely. It gives him much more credibility with non-Catholics. Not only is he talking the talk, but he's walking the walk as well.

Would we expect anything else from not only a great Holy Father but also one giant hero of a man?

Re: Pope's Suffering and Things of Evil
I thought of the comparison all day. I wondered if the Pope was picking up now that Terri must be so weary. Maybe he will take over for her because this spiritual battle has just begun.
