Thankyou for posting this article.Every Catholic that is somewhat bewildered over the current situation in the Church should read it.

It is a source of great concern to me to see this conflict,which so clearly pits two very different "visions" of Church,battled out within the very heart of the Church.

Can anyone shed some light on why a priest or bishop,who clearly brings a worldly agenda forward,was nominated and appointed to the College of CArdinals?

One theory I've heard was that it was to PREVENT a German schism. Abortion certificates have been a huge issue there.

I was thinking maybe because they can keep an eye on him? Seems like Ratzinger thoroughly rolled over him in this debate (I might be biased, of course). At least what Kasper writes and says is within earshot of those who can act quickly to rebut "the world agenda."
