"One Million Wait to View the Pope as Line Is Cut Off"
VATICAN CITY, April 6 - The streets around St. Peter's Basilica swelled
Wednesday with an estimated one million pilgrims, nearly double the barely
manageable number of the day before. The surge was so great that late on
Wednesday night Italian officials closed down the line to view the body of
Pope John Paul II.
Lining up to view a dead body.
I can see when it's a close relative or close friend, that some would want to view the body.... but damn.. the guy's been dead for what, a week now? Put him in the damn ground already. How can 3 million people not see the morbidity factor?
