Pray for Cardinal Burke. He is a good and holy man. He has been honest and courageous in in recent statements.

No reason has been given for his demotion.

Burke should be pope and Francis should convert to protestantism before he does any more damage to the faith.

Demotion indeed!

This is the Vatican equivalent of assigning a Marine Corps General to the Mess Kit Refurbishing Department in Twenty-Nine Palms, CA.

Ah well, maybe the Muslims will lay siege to Malta again and liven up Cardinal Burke's tenure.

***No reason has been given for his demotion.***

It’s simple. Pope Francis is telling Cardinal Burke, “I won.”

Maybe Christ wants the good cardinal to be a saint. This dismissal ought to help with that. :)
