RC1953, no one can accuse you of dishonesty, that's for sure.

I understand your meaning, and I struggle with great anger toward that man, but I was reminded by a trad priest that to wish a man damnation is a mortal sin.  So I pray for him, and that he had a deathbed repentence.  Regardless, justice is delivered at Judgement.

Now there is food for thought. Catholicism is full of catch 22s. Of course to WISH somebody would go to hell has to be a sin.

And of course one can, at the last seconds of one's life ask forgiveness for one's sins. Indeed a trad priest once told us in a homily that if one is seconds to death (like a bus heading your way) the words 'My Jesus mercy' will suffice to keep you out of hell.

It is however beyond belief that JP2 even considered his modernism sinful, so there is no way he repented it at the end. Whether one could ask forgiveness for one's sins and gain forgiveness for things one does not consider sins I do not know.

One does not know the extent of God's forgiveness. We are taught it is infinite. But repentance is essential.

Then there is being responsible for the loss of other souls. How many souls have been lost due to Vatican II modernism? Is there 'fairmess' in the idea millions of souls go to hell while those who contributed to their loss get to heaven.

Only God can sort out these questions.

Finally, we too could end up in hell, God forbid. Now what if God said to us, would you like to go where JP2 is destined for? Bet you would wish JP2 was, after Purgatory, going to heaven. Well I think that is the only way we can attain forgiveness, to hope God forgives others as we hope He will forgive us.

It is a FACT that in one survey done on evolution 45% of believers said it was the cause of them DISBELIEVING and leaving the Christian faith. St Paul knew what he was talking about.

I don't know about studies on defections, but I do know of several people who lost the Faith and they told me that it was because of evolution that they lost it.  

As holy as St. Pius X was, he did allow a study to be conducted in Rome (as I recall it was the Biblical Commission of 1909) to consider the possibility that evolution was not contradictory to Scripture, specifically.  I have always thought it was odd, though, that they did not equally consider the Sacred Tradition of the Church along with Scripture, as has always been the way the Church conducts such research and analysis  --  unless perhaps I didn't quite understand their reasoning.  They pretty much left the question open, and after that, Liberals went hog-wild with their creepy theories.  The principle promoter in the Church of the lies was Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.  There was enough latent resistance to his putrid antics that he was (at first) denied Christian burial.

Today there are large swaths of NovusOrdo Catholics who believe that the Catholic understanding of creation is not at odds with so-called evolution, saying nonsense like Adam and Eve had "evolved" from lower forms and God just breathed an immortal soul into their already-existing animal bodies.  Any child can explain how that doesn't square with Genesis.  But Modernists do not have the faith of a child, which is why they can't go to heaven.  They'll go to the other place, instead, as they wish.

The bottom line is that Freemasons have promoted so-called evolution with their agenda of getting Catholics acclimated to their false doctrine that we are 'evolving' to become gods, kind of like the Mormons believe, in their damned error (which is a false religion founded by Freemasons).  

It seems to me that one of the signs that the True Faith will have returned to the Church will be when so-called evolution is sliced, diced and hung out to dry like Pope St. Pius X did with Modernism (Pascendi, mostly, but also other docuмents).
