I'd rather this thread go as a place for people to make warm observations about the Pope's funeral service.
Again, I never intended to insult anyone, it was an accident. Shoot, when I was in Poland, my family asked me about my religious practices - they didn't even know what I meant when I tried to tell them that I'm a "Christian". The whole concept of protestantism was foreign to them (and yes, I even used the word "protestant" at one point). I guess it just goes to show you that words sometimes fail us - what means one thing to one, can mean something else to another (or nothing at all!).
Finally, in case it wasn't clear before, I am
not in that camp of people who say that Catholics are not Christians. It was simply a misunderstanding.
