Pope Benedict announced that he would meet with his senior advisors in Rome on the 16th of this month. According to one of the Italian news agencies, the purpose of the meeting is to address critical questions that include [1] the broader use of the traditional Latin Mass, [2] the issue of the break-away groups of French priests and bishops Pope Benedict is trying to bring back to the fold, [3] the issue of Archbishop Milingo, the archbishop who attempted marriage in a Unification marriage ceremony and had reconciled with Pope John Paul II but who this year, along with Archbishop George Stallings, former priest of this archdiocese, has initiated a national movement to ordain married men and [4] the issue of ordaining married men of proven virtue that was discussed at the October Synod of Bishops meeting but not pushed forward as a recommendation. It never quiets down, does it?
