There are hundreds of examples. Here are just a couple:
Against Torture on June 27, 2004: Pope: Torture is 'intolerable' violation of human rights: http://www.the-tidings.com/2004/0702/torture.htm and http://www.cwnews.com/news/viewstory.cfm?recnum=30476
For Freedom of Religion: "It is my ardent hope that Muslim and Christian religious leaders and teachers will present our two great religious communities as communities in respectful dialogue, never more as communities in conflict."
-- Pope John Paul II, Meeting with Muslim Leaders in Omayyad Great Mosque, Damascus, May 6, 2001. http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/speeches/2001/documents/hf_jp-ii_spe_20010506_omayyadi_en.html
With love in Christ.

You know, I despise the catholic church and all it stands for, but that pope was pretty cool. He gained the respect of this Pagan the day he had the balls to stand up and apologise for the shortcomings and atrocities of his predecessors, among them declaring that Mary Magdalene was NOT a whore - she was the wife of Jesus, and I think this guy knew that too. He was the only pope that has ever actually had something worthwhile to say. This nazi they have right now - I don't even know his name, but his energy is bad.
