Uh, no comment :-).
A story I like about (ex)Cardinal Ratzinger is how he met with a representative of the German Hutterites, the Amish-like European Christian group. The Hutterite leader addressed the Cardinal as "Brother Joseph," and some functionary tried to tell him the "correct" title, but Cardinal Ratzinger said, "He is perfectly correct - we are brothers."
Thanks for posting this. It should be widely known.
