Pope:

• Bonhoeffer and pope—parallels | Both stressed that discipleship was costly and involved suffering (Uwe Siemon-Netto, UPI)
• France urged to skip official papal honors | While the death of Pope John Paul II has brought widespread mourning, there has also been pressure on the secular French Republic not to honor him officially (The New York Times)
• John Paul II won in the East, lost in the West | Where were all these people when the pope was alive? (Daniel Henninger, The Wall Street Journal)
