JOHN ALLEN'S COULUMN
deserves a read. Ecumenism with the Orthodox, homosexual ordination, and Ex Corde Ecclesiae are all covered.
His reading of the potential "get tough" policy of Benedict on homosexual ordination and on the mandatum appears to provide a lot of loopholes for non-compliance. Regarding the criteria listed for determining whether a university is still Catholic or not, they sound good, but I'd reverse the order. It seems to me that the most important criteria came in in last place.
