he, from the late pope to anna smith?
yep, the all pervading sickness of this modern world, "celebrity"
i feel the pope called "john paul" if given a choice, would not choose to appear as a mockery of his ailing figure in a ball of flames....a face in a taco maybe....lol...
This is no different than the Miracle of Fatima when the children saw the vision of the Virgin Mary.
As for the Late Pope to Anna only means that all Spirits in the Spirit World no matter how important they were and or are in the Spirit World they still want to reappear and have people mention their appearances so others will believe they are alive and hopefully their friends and realtives will believe so they can appear to them in their dreams or in their homes and they will welcome them.
I personally acknowledge all Spirits no matter what station in life they held and try to tell the World they appeared and are alive so that you will one day not be too surprised when you realize in the Spirit World you are just as intelligent and have all the memories good and bad that you had when you walked the earth and as such you will be very anxious to have people acknowledge that you are alive.
Spirits still love people on Earth and want to be acknowledged and people on Earth need to know that ideas from the Spirit World can benefit those still here on Earth.
