In addition, the Pope and the Cardinals discussed whether or not they may declare a full amnesty for the free use of Pope V's Latin missal

How awful would it be to allow a Latin missal in the Latin Church?

and how to do so without betraying the spirit of the Vatican II Council.

Spirit of the Vatican II Council? Excuse me? So much evil has been done in the name of the "spirit of the Vatican II". How about not betraying the ACTUAL Vatican II Council? Talking about the "spirit of the Vatican II" will push the SSPX further away.

CARDINAL ARINZE: "So there are problems. However some of the problems were not caused by Vatican II, but they were caused by children of the Church after Vatican II. Some of them talking of Vatican II push in their own agenda. We have to watch that. People pushing their own agenda justifying it as the "spirit of Vatican II".

Given that life expectancy and quality of life have improved since the original age of 75 was put in place, some cardinals have suggested the possibility of postponing the legal age of retirement to 80.

Surprise, surprise. In my opinion, they ought to lower it to 70.
