There are approximately one billion Catholics living in the world today. After the death of John Paul II, Catholics had to process the loss of their spiritual leader, then had to contend with the fact that a new pope would be selected. Many Catholics, especially those who crave change in the church, were apprehensive about who the cardinals would select.
