Recall then Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger's reflection on the Ninth Station of the Cross when asked to write these meditations by JPII.

How much filth there is in the Church, and even among those who, in the priesthood, ought to belong entirely to him! How much pride, how much self-complacency! What little respect we pay to the Sacrament of Reconciliation, where he waits for us, ready to raise us up whenever we fall!

It is well worth reflecting on the WAY OF THE CROSS AT THE COLOSSEUM - GOOD FRIDAY 2005.

On this Friday in Lent, I would encourage all Catholics to remember Pope Benedict XVI in their prayers and personal sacrifices. We know the source of this attack. Fr. Amorth has correctly assessed the situation.

You are correct...and THIS needs repeating:

“On this Friday in Lent, I would encourage all Catholics to remember Pope Benedict XVI in their prayers and personal sacrifices. We know the source of this attack. Fr. Amorth has correctly assessed the situation.”
