Victims here are quite heated though, and well they should be. I wouldn't be happy if I saw this guy getting all of this attention.
I don't know what news casts you where watching, but the BBC and CBC all found Romans and visiting Catholics that stated that the recent scandals hitting the Church where perhaps the greatest failing and/or challenge to JP2's legacy - personally I'd have said that the stance on condoms was more devastating...
