Anybody else read this as saying there are only 10 cardinals who are even vaguely Catholic, and 21 wild-eyed heretics? Or am I reading to much into this?

[JNB]

I am reading this as 5 liberals, because Abp Antonelli of Florence was described as orthodox on doctrine. As for the "social justice" group of cardinals, many seem fairly solid, and Mr Allen judged them on their foreign policy rather than doctrinal views. On foreign policy, even the SSPX by US standards is pretty liberal(they opposed the war in Iraq as well).

I am too shaken by the fact there isn't, yet, a single Eskimo Cardinal so I can't even address the putative heresy of these men.
