As for my opinion goes on the sainthood, 10 years after ones death is way too soon to fast-track sainthood for not only John Paul II, but for any considerations for sainthood! Here it almost seems to be done in order to make a first ever occurrence of a sitting pope canonizing two former popes, fast-tracking one of them and doing so while another living pope watches on!

First on your comment concerning the sarcasm...I agree with you totally....most times sarcasm to be successful must be overdone. This pointed out the fallacy of the ....well.....made good points with sarcasm, but yes overdone for sure but that is the point.
I, too, find the haste and rush to sainthood to be rather quick. My education on sainthood seems to say it has to take a longer time, but I am always reminded that the times are a changing.
None of these comments diminish the contributions of these men, but is certainly something a bit different
