    The Pope has died

    VATICAN CITY - Pope John Paul II, the Polish pontiff who led the Roman Catholic Church for more than a quarter century and became history's most-traveled pope, has died at 84, the Vatican announced in an e-mail Saturday.
    "The Holy Father died this evening at 9:37 p.m. (2:37 p.m. EST) in his private apartment. All the procedures outlined in the apostolic Constitution `Universi Dominici Gregis' that was written by John Paul II on Feb. 22, 1996, have been put in motion."

    Is it finally official?

    I heard word about 4 times yesterday that he died but yet none of the news sources (online) would confirm it.

    It really is a sad day. What a great man, for both the church and the world. You got to respect a man who is all about peace, compassion and love.

    It was expected, and it's not confirmed. RIP. Great man, great pope. One of the longest running popes.

    Quite anxious to see who the next pope will be, he has a great pope to live up to.

    Homer: We're proud of you, boy.

    Bart: Thanks, Dad. But part of this D-minus belongs to God.
