John Paul The Great again

World Watch - April 3, 2005 - Why I Miss Karol Wojtyla - The Ornery American: Orson Scott Card never thought a Pope would speak for him. "But very soon after his accession, I began to realize that this man -- this Karol Wojtyla, this John Paul II -- was declaring boldly the stand of Christianity as a whole against the new and godless religions that were becoming the state churches of the traditionally dominant Christian nations.
Nothing he said made me want to become a Catholic. But most of the things he said and did made me think of myself as one of the Christians he was speaking for. At times I even found myself wishing that the leader of my church would speak to the rest of the world as boldly and clearly. (Then we got a leader who did; but that's another story.) "
