I was under the impression that "Archbishop" was simply a bishop who was in charge of a single diocese that was particularly large -- that is, the "arch" was no indication of a further reach of authority than any other bishop. Was I incorrect?
I need to write a letter to Prefect Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger. He is the primary authority within the CONGREGATION FOR THE DOCTRINE OF THE FAITH.
According to a Vatican web page the CONGREGATION FOR THE DOCTRINE OF FAITH has responsibility for overseeing "....«the duty proper to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith is to promote and safeguard the doctrine on the faith and morals throughout the Catholic world: for this reason everything which in any way touches such matter falls within its competence.»
The congregation is now headed by Prefect Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger. It has a secretary, Archbishop Tarcisio Bertone, S.D.B., an under-secretary, P. Joseph Augustine Di Noia, O.P., and a staff of 31...."
By chance, do you know of a street address where Cardinal Ratzinger receives his mail?
I will express my bewilderment at the total failure of this commission to correct the sin plaguing American seminaries, and ask him to detail what action the commission is taking to halt the influx of seminarians who do not accept the Bible's instruction against sodomy.
This recent "summit" in Rome did nothing to confront America's expanding spiritual crisis, or the incredible financial damage sodimite priests have inflicted with the overt protection and encouragement of their superiors.
Evil is as evil does.
It is also my intent to ask Cardinal Ratzinger to have his commission review the kind of instruction provided seminarians in America, as well as the membership of seminary applicant review panels. Common knowledge suggest the genesis for the unforgivable evil within the Church has its roots here.
Jesus drove out the money changers for desecrating the House of His Father. The presence today of this disgusting evil within His Father's House demands a replication of His outrage.
