NCRegister reports Andrea Tornielli's comments regarding the delay in the canonization process for JPII: “None of the consulters doubts the personal sanctity of the great Pontiff” and there are “no insurmountable obstacles.” Evidently the snag has to do with a lack of unanimity amongst the consulters. "Several parties “raised objections and difficulties,” he says, and so the meeting has been postponed to a later date, probably before the Vatican summer holidays in August."

Hopefully the delay will help to clear up much of the confusion surrounding a few of the Holy Father's ecumenical gestures during his papacy.
