I am the "some mudcat posters" in question. I said what I said about the wicked Mother Teresa on 11 March at 8.15pm on the Catholic religion response to 'today' thread.

The imaginative cardinals have picked an old man yet again. He is extremely suspicious of homosexuality, he opposes gay marriage, he opposes contraception and he opposes abortion. It is very touching to read that his choice of name may signal a new beginning. Talk about clutching at straws. Another grim deal for Catholics the world over.
