Abstract This paper explores the life and many achievements of the head of the Catholic church, Pope John Paul II. Author Tad Szulc argues in his book "Pope John Paul II, The Biography" that despite a seemingly difficult life and an even more unlikely rise to power, Pope John Paul II played a large role in the collapse of European communism. This paper also details many interesting revelations and historical facts of Pope John Paul II's life.
From the Paper "Pope John Paul II has never deviated form the rigid principle he set forth with the start of his papacy. He will not stand for any public dissent within the church on matters of Catholic morality, ethics, faith and interpretation. He subsequently banned all controversial theological debates, citing the old Roman adage, causa finita est, meaning, when Rome speaks the matter is closed. Although his appointment seemed a harsh reality, John Paul none the less took up an almost opposite stance when it came to the poor and oppressed, becoming a powerful advocate for third world nations."
