Deal Hudson, editor of Crisis magazine, weighs in with his take on the flap over Cardinal Arinze’s comments at Georgetown. One clarification: Deal identifies a professor who took it upon himself to apologize on behalf of all Catholics for the cardinal’s remarks. He is not actually a Catholic priest, at least not in the practical sense. He is a former Jesuit who left the Church to join the schismatic “American Catholic Church.”
Deal’s letter follows:
Catherine,
I suppose the best place to send it would be to the Vatican office where he works:
H.E. Francis Cardinal Arinze
Congregaton for Divine Worship and the Sacraments
Palazzo delle Congregazioni
Piazza Pio XII, 10
00193 Roma, ITALY
I think that address should work.
No, Carol. It’s the professor who complained about the cardinal who’s not Catholic. Cardinal Arinze is definitely Catholic.
