However, I agree with Andrew in saying that EWTN seems obsessed with JP II. <br /><br />I don't think Andrew is praying for any particular candidate or issue; from my conversations with him, we are both praying simply that the Cardinals will hear and respond to the Holy Ghost so that we get a Pope who is truly God-chosen.Fr Dicksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11702725497183621855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-641832955811669058.post-35152585047037164262013-03-12T13:00:03.936+00:002013-03-12T13:00:03.936+00:00Dear Andrew

No doubt JPII is EWTN's point of reference.<br />As to 'papabile'; every cardinal is a potential Pope so EWTN's money is on Dolan. As I pointed out in my own blog we should perhaps be praying that the Holy Ghost will give us a Pope to whom we will be (happily) obedient.<br />Should we, perhaps, be praying for a Pope like Ranjith, Burke or a similarly traditionalist Pope who will guide our Church back to its core values rather than lead it further down the road of liberalism. We must pray for a Pope who controls our bishops more firmly & forbids the more extreme forms of Mass. We need a Pope who will extend the use of the EF of Mass & compels priests to stick to the rubrics in the OF of Mass. Remember the precept "say the black & do the red."David O'Neillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04023042558615821880noreply@blogger.com
