 | | For many years Karol believed God was calling him to the priesthood, and after two near fatal accidents, he responded to God's call. | | | Since the time of Pope Benedict XV, this terminology was under review by the Holy See; the present Pope's usage is a confirmation of this traditional view of Mary's role in salvation history. | | | Venerable Pope Pius XII appointed Wojtyla an auxiliary bishop in Krakow on 4 July 1958. |

| Â | The ANTICHRIST -- Pope John Paul II (Karol Wojtyla) |
| | Many in the Catholic faith believed when he became pope that he would resolve many of the internal problems of the Church. | | | His act – reported in the "Mobile Register," 3/13/00, as being "pushed forward over the doubts of even many of his own cardinals and bishops." – does not serve God or God's One True Church, but only serves his own personal agenda. | | | The belief is growing that "Karol Wojtyla" - AKA: Pope John Paul II is an antiChrist. |
