Sainthood bid opens for John Paul
Advertisements [?]

BBC

A bid to make John Paul II a saint begins in earnest on Tuesday when the Vatican starts sifting possible evidence of a miracle by the late Pope.

Members of a special commission - including a latter-day "Devil's Advocate" whose job is to challenge any claim - will swear secrecy and probity.

Hundreds of letters and e-mails in praise of John Paul's holiness have already arrived, the Vatican said.

His case is being fast-tracked after Pope Benedict made a special ruling.
