He's my 3rd hit in April along with Schuller and Sledge. Can Billy Graham be far behind?

Billy Graham was mentioned in another obit today, that's a sign.

Cardinal Pell is in huge trouble for allegedly trying to bribe a child abuse victim:

Today, "A specially appointed member of the Vatican's commission on child protection has accused Cardinal George Pell of being "almost sociopathic" in his treatment of victims.

"Personally I think that his position is untenable because he has now a catalogue of denials...

He has a catalogue of denigrating people, of acting with callousness, cold-heartedness, almost sociopathic I would go as far as to say, this lack of care.

Given the position of George Pell as a cardinal of the church and a position of huge authority within the Vatican, I think he is a massive, massive thorn in the side of Pope Francis's papacy if he's allowed to remain.

And I think it's critical that he is moved aside, that he is sent back to Australia, and that the Pope takes the strongest action against him.""

Much to learn have you, young Padawan. The trials and tribulations of the Roman Catholic Church have long been a source of fascination for us here.

 

Besides, Pell's not young and he is now under a lot of stress. Furthermore, other parties might have an interest in his downfall as he was called in to help sort out the Vatican's finances.

Cardinal Giacomo Biffi, 71, said that the modern Antichrist, identified in the Book of Revelation as a seven-headed beast, was most likely now disguised as a philanthropist supporting creeds like vegetarianism, animal rights or pacifism, or advocating dialogue with Orthodox or Anglican believers.

LOL - I remember reading that loon's quote from a few years ago. One of the Popes - either John Paul the Second or Benedict - supposedly had a soft spot for him which was the only reason nutty Biffi was tolerated at the Vatican.

Pope Francis visited Cardinal Roger Etchegaray in hospital on Sunday night, after the cardinal fell while greeting the Pontiff at the end of Mass in St Peter’s Basilica earlier in the day. Cardinal Etchegaray, 93, is being treated at the Gemelli Hospital, in Rome, for a fractured left femur.

He will reportedly need an operation to repair the fracture. The cardinal previously broke his leg and hip on Christmas Eve in 2009 at St Peter’s Basilica, when a woman knocked him and Benedict XVI to the ground during midnight Mass.

 

Dude needs to find another place of worship to work at. Jeesh.

This one is 93 with surgeries for broken bones? He's checking out soon. 2016 possibility.

El cardenal boliviano Julio Terrazas se encuentra en "estado terminal"

La situación de salud del cardenal boliviano Julio Terrazas, que es el único purpurado de su país, se ha agravado y se encuentra en un "estado terminal", afirmó hoy su médico Herlan Vaca Diez, que consideró "prácticamente imposible" su recuperación."Su salud está mal y está prácticamente en un estado terminal", afirmó Vaca Diez a los periodistas reunidos a las puertas de la vivienda de Terrazas, en la ciudad boliviana de Santa Cruz, donde los feligreses realizan una jornada de oración por su recuperación.

 

Agregó que es "prácticamente imposible una recuperación del cardenal", que lleva postrado varios días debido a una infección pulmonar, aunque el religioso pidió no ser internado en un hospital.El vocero del cardenal, Edwin Bazan, dijo a radio Erbol que la salud de Terrazas es "tremendamente delicada" y en las últimas horas se encuentra "muy demacrado" y "agotado físicamente".Bazan pidió a los católicos bolivianos mantener las jornadas de oración "por un hombre que le ha dado muchísimo a la Iglesia católica boliviana y se comprometió con el Dios de la vida".Terrazas, de 79 años, es el único cardenal de Bolivia y el primero de esta nacionalidad.Durante su visita a Bolivia en julio pasado, el papa Francisco visitó en una clínica a Terrazas cuando se encontraba internado por dolencias que le impidieron participar en los actos oficiales de la visita del pontífice.Terrazas, que padece de diabetes, problemas cardíacos y renales, se encontraba internado entonces por una deshidratación.Francisco se hospedó en la casa del cardenal en Santa Cruz durante los tres días que duró su visita a Bolivia.

The health situation of the Bolivian Cardinal Julio Terrazas, who is the only cardinal in his country, has worsened and is in a "terminal condition", his doctor Herlan Vaca Diez said today and considered it "virtually impossible" to recover.

"His health is poor and is practically in a terminal state," said Vaca Diez. Reporters gathered at the gates of the house of Terrazas, in the Bolivian city of Santa Cruz, where parishioners made a day of prayer for his recovery.

He added that it is "virtually impossible for the Cardinal to recover," He has been bedriden several days bedridden due to a lung infection, although the religious asked not to be admitted to a hospital.

The cardinal's spokesman, Edwin Bazan told Radio Erbol that Terrazas is "extremely delicate" and in the last hours is "emaciated" and "physically exhausted".

Bazan asked the Bolivian Catholics hold prayer sessions to a man who has given so much to the Bolivian Catholic Church and committed to the God of life."

Terrazas, 79, is the only Cardinal in Bolivia and the first of his nationality.

During his visit to Bolivia last July, the pope visited a clinic Francisco Terrazas when he was hospitalized for conditions that prevented him from participating in the official events of the pontiff's visit.

Terrazas, who suffers from diabetes, heart and kidney problems, was then hospitalized for dehydration.

Francisco stayed at the house of Cardinal in Santa Cruz during the three-day visit to Bolivia.
