He felt he had a duty to undo the damage done by the Cardinal when he lent credibility to the alleged apparitions with some of his words and actions. He was talking out of both sides of his mouth at times and the bishop called him out on it. <br /><br /><i>I'm not sure if courtesy is due from a Cardinal to a Bishop, especially if he's a Curial Cardinal.</i><br /><br />You aren't sure? <br /><br />Father, perhaps you could discuss subsidiarity some time so people understand <br /><br />This much you can be sure of: It's is completely out of line for one bishop or Cardinal to enter another's territory and start rearranging the furniture so to speak. This is exactly what Cardinal Schonborn did and it makes the most recent Petrus article about the meeting with Pope Benedict XVI plausible. The Cardinal's been pouring salt in the wounds of the Bishop of Mostar with interviews and press releases which were further exploited.<br /><br />Cardinal Saravia Martins explained it very eloquently:<br /><br />In an interview the other day with the Cardinal (see link in my previous comment), Petrus asked:<br /><br /><i><b>The Bishop of Mostar recently made known his own displeasure at not being informed of the presence of Cardinal Schönborn at Medjugorje. A "weighty" presence, that some could interpret erroneously as a recognition of the apparitions on the part of the Holy See.</b></i><br /><br />The Cardinal explained:<br /><br /><i>"Far be it from me to think of judging the conduct of Cardinal Schönborn, but I, considering the morbid attention which is concentrated on Medjugorje, and as I always do every time I go out from Rome, would have spoken beforehand with Monsignor Peric: when we Cardinals enter into a Diocese, we are entering into the "house" of the Bishop of the place and we must have the good manners and good sense to announce ourselves."</i>Diane Korzeniewskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06085979986006926002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-24407437622807065602010-01-16T02:46:29.582+00:002010-01-16T02:46:29.582+00:00You may be interested in an English translation th...You may be interested in an English translation <a href="http://catholiclight.stblogs.org/archives/2010/01/pope-benedict-t-1.html" rel="nofollow">the Petrus article which says that "word filtering out of the 'Sacred Palace' is that the meeting was about his trip to Medjugorje.</a><br /><br />You may also be interested in what a very well respected Cardinal - someone with a good bit of experience in "discernment of spirits" had to say about the affair. <br /><br />Here is the <a href="http://catholiclight.stblogs.org/archives/2010/01/from-petrus-car.html" rel="nofollow">english translation of the interview of Cardinal Saraiva Martins on Medjugorje and Cardinal Schonborn</a>.
