		John, the last survivor of the apostles, opens and finishes his last writing with a most realistic allusion to the blood of the atonement.

		The seventh and last of John's testimonies and the last in all Revelation relates to the virtue of the atonement as the source of life, eternal life, conditionally inspired in a fallen race.

	The Word From Rome March 31, 2006
		After John Paul II, he was the most visible figure in Roman Catholicism over the last quarter-century, a man associated with all of the most important controversies in the church over that stretch of time -- liberation theology, the limits of dissent, battles over what theological sense to make of other religions, and so on.
		Second, a key to understanding the mind of Benedict XVI is to realize that he makes a sharp distinction between what he considers matters of faith and morals, about which he is tenacious, and "judgment calls" in specific circumstances where there is no clear answer in the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
		John Paul, who met with Muslims more than 60 times over the course of his papacy, and who during a 2001 trip to Damascus became the first pope to enter a mosque, believed in reaching out to Islamic moderates and avoiding confrontational talk.

		In terms of Orthodoxy, Benedict XVI said the day after his election that ecumenism, that is, the effort to reunite the divided Christian family, is job number one of his pontificate.
		John Paul at his peak was taking three or four trips a year, so I don't think it's the number of trips that's unusual.
		John Paul II had changed the job description of the pope, and so they had to go looking for a man who had seriousness, who had heft -- someone who knew the role, who spoke languages, who had a deep intellectual vision.

		Throughout the recent controversy over Pope Benedict XVI’s remarks on faith and reason at Regensburg University, attempts have been made to drive a wedge between Benedict and his papal predecessor.
		John Paul II would have completely agreed with Benedict XVI's critique, at Regensburg, of a theology that reduces God to pure will, a remote dictator who can command the irrational (like the murder of innocents) if he chooses.
		And, like Benedict XVI, John Paul II knew that such misconceptions can have lethal public consequences, because all the great questions of the human condition, including political questions, are ultimately theological.
