Goff noted that while many think there is a separation between the tradi- tional practices of the Catholic Church and Bible scripture, there is a direct link from the papacy to the Bible. Goff said the pope is essentially the Bishop of Rome, a post first held by the Apostle Peter from the Bible. In the book of Matthew, chapter 16, Jesus says that Peter is the rock on which the church is built. Each pope has since been a successor of Peter.

This past weekend, the world lost a great man. Pope John Paul II could be looked up to not only by the Catholic ,* * Church, but also the world. Pope John Paul II was the first pope in over 400 years who was not Italian. During his time as pope, he brought about many :• » changes that would revolutionize the Catholic church's view on how a pope should act and be a source of inspiration to people both Catholic and not. He was the first pope ever to visit 125 countries and one of the only popes to ever really leave the Vatican at all. He traveled around the world helping people and mending political rifts be- tween nations as well as religions. He supported one of the major democratic groups in Poland, which eventually lead to the fall of communism in that nation. He also mended the rift between the Catholic churcti and Judaism, between the Vatican and Israel and apologized to many religious groups he felt the Catholic church had wronged. Birds and humans fly from open cage doors He spoke eight different languages, only learning Spanish after As a kid, squirrels and birds fascinated me.
