Fire of Liberty
As we contemplate the process of dying with the recent passing of Terri Schiavo and the slow demise of Pope John Paul II, I have been interested in what the various news anchors have been saying about the Pontiff. Take for instance CNN's Miles O'Brien who keeps on talking about how there's no hope for John Paul II. Yes, there's probably no hope for him on this Earthly plane but he has the greatest sense of hope with Christ in his afterlife in Heaven. While its human to grieve for the death of anyone we should remember PJPII's works and celebrate what awaits him. To gain a better understanding of what I'm talking about, check out this essay in First Things by Father Richard John Neuhaus.
