What would your musical telling your life story be called ?
A musical about Pope John Paul II called Don’t Be Scared is being staged in Rome.
The production has 18 songs and tells the story of his life in two hours.
The musical was written by two priests, one who wrote the script, the other who crafted the songs.

Many of the things he did were God’s plan like how he saved Edith Zieler with bread and water how he was knocked down by a truck with Nazi soldiers and was saved by them how he had the Irresistable call to the Roman Catholic priesthood how he had to study underground for his priesthood studies how he saved the Jews from the Nazis
How he became Auxiliary Bishop of Krakow How he became Archbishop of Krakow and how he became Pope by chance
and how he changed the world with his love warmth touch compassion peace and joy and his theology and teachings
Surely as the Theologian Luis Molina said This thing cannot happened by chance He was born as a result of God’s will for him If God has placed him in situation elsewhere he would not have become Pope Johannes Paulus II
CAlvin is a hyprociate who denied the Flesh and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ

From a speech by made by Pope Benedict XVI in the Cologne Synagogue on Holocaust Memorial Day (Jan 27):
“And in the 20th century, in the darkest period of German and European history, an insane racist ideology, born of neo-paganism, gave rise to the attempt, planned and systematically carried out by the regime, to exterminate European Jewry. The result has passed into history as the Shoah. The victims of this unspeakable and previously unimaginable crime amounted to 11,000 named individuals in Cologne alone; the real figure was surely much higher. The holiness of God was no longer recognized, and consequently, contempt was shown for the sacredness of human life.”
How does this speech make you feel and does it change your mind in any way on the issue of the Church and the Holocaust?
Crack a history book, Hitler was no more a Catholic than I am a Martian.
He mentions Cologne because that’s where he made the speech.
I’m sure you are all aware that the Catholic Church was directly responsible for saving the lives of over 800,000 Jews… right? I mean, that is a widely known historical fact that even the Jews themselves have acknowledged…
