John Paul II's last words...

I didnt know where to make this, so what the heck.

First off, yahoo gets it WRONG ! If you are going to print an article, dont quote a mans last words wrong !

Yahoo sez: John Paul II's last words: 'Let me go to the Father's house'

The real last words were: "Let me go to the house of the Father"'

At least quote it correct !

And more info inside.

At the VERY end he said 'Amen' and died instantly.
He said the 'let me go to the house of the Father'
and then said nothing until the very end ... 'Amen'.

Apparently he said the 'fathers house' quote and then
he went unconcious. The instant he was to die he said,
or tried to say, 'Amen' according to a Polilsh priest who
was by his deathbead. The priest is Fr. Jarek Cielecki.

'Amen' or 'Fathers house' ... either one...
a holy death in my opinion.

Vatican issues report on Pope John Paul II

By FRANCES D'EMILIO
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
VATICAN CITY --

Media accounts published at the time of John Paul's death said he looked toward the apartment window and whispered "Amen." The Rome newspaper La Repubblica quoted a Polish priest, Jarek Cielecki, as saying the pope died "an instant" after he made a great effort to say, "Amen."

Do they bury Popes with Pope bling or just in regular clothing? O_o

Seeing that it probably wasn't in english, the words most likely just got switched around a little in the translation.

Plus I thought it was:

"I'll get you darn kids, if it's the last thing I do!!!"

John Paul II's last words...

"Not the Nazi..." ???
