One concern expressed by many is that Francis has stacked the College of Cardinals and that we are bound to get Francis II. When this is said to me, I generally answer with this:
How did a College filled by John Paul II and to a lesser degree, Paul VI, give us Joseph Ratzinger and then, with its numbers added to by Benedict XVI, give us Jorge Bergoglio?
I am not naive that we can have worse than Francis, but I am not convinced it is given.
Monsignor Bux made some comments recently about the current state of the College of Cardinals and the Episcopacy.
Anthony Stine gives some commentary this morning on this.
