Nobody seems to want to answer the dubia. Why is that?

[bgill]

No one wants to start the process of opening the can of worms that outs the Pope.

The Dubya controversy started in 2000, if not sooner, and continues even today. This is a domestic US controversy. I think the Pope should leave it alone. :)

Mueller actually answered correctly - from the pint of view of orthodox Catholic doctrine. But the pope is between a rock and a hard place: if he answers truthfully, he outs himself as a manifest heretic, and if he answers untruthfully (that is, with the orthodox responses) or permits Mueller to answer for him, then he is undoing his whole project. Clever Cdl Burke!

So he will just refuse to answer. But that can’t go on forever.

*Cardinal Gerhard Müller, the head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF), has said that his role is not to participate in the controversy over the four cardinals’ letter to the Pope.*

Well, then, what exactly IS your role?

GRRR!
