The new Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith has been announced. Bishop Gerhard Müller appears to be a controversial choice, and quite a lot of trad-minded folk seem to view his appointment with suspicion and hostility.Both the inimitable Fr. Z and His Hermeneuticalness have greeted the news with cautious optimism...
I don't know the ins and outs of the Church politics here. All I know is that Bishop Müller's appointment has upset the "Wir Sind Kirche" lot. That, IMHO can only be A Good Thing...
The sooner we are Wir sind Kirchelos the better!
