cant say I didn't see it coming, but it's still depressing...

yeah Im basically feeling the same way, he was basically the icon of "the pope" for me from growing up seeing his image and stuff
I was born and raised Catholic, but "left" the church in my teens as I read about and explored the different concepts of religion and spirituality that exist throughout the world. Though I currently do not consider myself a follower of any particular "faith" - and am not a proponent of organized religion in general, no matter what the faith - I am deeply saddened by the loss of one who was such a beacon of grace, faith, hope, and humanitarianism for so many people around the world.
Personal religion/faith aside, John Paul II was a good man who contributed greatly and positively to this world during his time in it.
Rest in Peace.

I'm not a big of Catholics, but he was one of the few high-place people who tried to make the world a better place.
