Pope John Paul II Vision Clashes With U S Catholic Views
New research suggests Pope John Paul II’s vision of the church differs from American Catholic expectations. A Purdue survey finds only about four in ten Catholics born after 1941 value church teachings if not fully understood, while a new book notes a strong desire among American Catholics for greater lay involvement. The Purdue study also shows most see the pope as the vicar of Christ on earth, with many favoring more emphasis on traditional teachings.
