Cardinal Bishop is not the same thing as Bishop.
But hey, go call your Cardinal a bishop if you ever get to meet him. It will be frowned upon. In fact, I bet you wouldn’t just use the term BISHOP
“Cardinal Bishop is not the same thing as Bishop.”
They’re bishops. Covered in post #73. That’s the point.
“But hey, go call your Cardinal a bishop if you ever get to meet him.”
He would rather I call him “Father” than anything else since he only wanted to be a simple parish priest. And he would be the first one to say a Cardinal Bishop IS A BISHOP.
“It will be frowned upon.”
Oh, no, not the dreaded frown? The horrors!
“In fact, I bet you wouldn’t just use the term BISHOP”
I would call him Cardinal - even though I know he longs to just be a parish priest - and none of that changes the fact that he IS A BISHOP.
All the Cardinals you mentioned were BISHOPS. Nothing you can say will change that. This was covered in post #73.
Case closed.
You went from saying this was politics, to sex abuse cases, to sex abuse cover ups, to not all cardinals are bishops. You proved NOTHING. You were flat out wrong in many of your posts. You made things up out of thin air. You accused me of lying - which is not only absolutely untrue but is a violation of board rules. You refused to ping me even when you were discussing things I posted (or things you ascribed to me that I never posted) - which the mods here have said before should not be done. You might want to take stock and ask yourself why you did these things.
