Pope To Demote Conservative Cardinal – A Revolution, Decapitation, Describes Vatican Critic

 

By Athena Yenko | September 18, 2014

Cardinal Burke was appointed by late Pope John Paul II who had also decided to assign him to be the Archbishop of St. Louis and a position in the Roman Curia as head to the department that strictly decides on the legal application of the Canon Law. While serving the Roman Curia, Burke had appointed equally conservative bishops. Pope Francis had since removed Burke from this latter appointment - a humiliation, described Magister.  

Magister described Burke as an expert of the Canon Law and a strict follower at that, even "to the most uncomfortable consequences." Uncomfortable consequences to the point when he denied communion to U.S. politicians who are pro-abortion, including  Sean Patrick O'Malley of Boston and Donald Wuerl of Washington. Both politicians are "valued" by Pope Francis, Magister points out.

Burke, also, is very vocal of his objection against ideas of Cardinal Walter Kasper, which include giving communion to the divorced and remarried. Magister said that Kasper is "well known to be in the good graces of Pope Francis."
