The Christological problem and the Christian theology of religions

I'm amazed its taken this long. Ratzinger's been trying to kill religious pluralism for decades. See Modernists at the Gates, including VJ's comment.

European Catholics who choose to ignore the consequences of a second "Augustinian" papacy, the diminuation of Neo-Thomism and Social Catholicism, who overlook his mission in the Church -- the destruction of pluralism -- are the problem.

There could have been a decent man in the Vatican, instead there's an elderly fool who wrote this crap:

We might have to part with the notion of a popular Church. It is possible that we are on the verge of a new era in the history of the Church, under circumstances very different from those we have faced in the past, when Christianity will resemble the mustard seed [Matthew 13:31-32], that is, will continue only in the form of small and seemingly insignificant groups, which yet will oppose evil with all their strength and bring Good into this world.1

Vacating the core of Vatican II is likely to produce a "mustard seed" cult. Oh well, he's got to die some day.
