No bowing...To any man!
Just God.
Gen 24:52 And it happened, when Abraham's servant heard their words, he bowed himself to the earth to Jehovah, bowing himself to the earth.

Romans 9:11-24
Our Eschatology may vary even our Ecclesiology may be disputed among us but our Soteriology most assume a singularity and exclusivity which in biblical term is known as Quote; "The Narrow Way" and Quote!

Yes, there were Buddists, Muslim Clerics, Protestants, people from all faiths, not just the Christians faith. The only thing I totally disagreed with was the bowing the knee before a dead person and the Remark made that we can now pray to Pope John Paul.

It hasn't been just catholics who lined up to see the pope. It was people from all denominations from all around the world wanting to pay their respects to a very remarkable man who was loved and respected by peolple from all around the world and all denominations.

I don't get it? Why do millions of Catholics line up to see the Pope and mourn over him, when most of them never have seen him personally? Please explain this to me. Do Catholics receive a special plenary indulgence by this? And when did Pope John Paul II ever PREACH the gospel to the masses? When?
