Perhaps the quote of the week

Relayed by Dr William Oddie [here] at The Catholic Herald:

“Given the successive waves of intellectual combat Pope Benedict XVI has endured in the service of the Church he loves”, [Professor] Tracey Rowland says, “a future pope may well declare Benedict XVI a ‘Doctor of the Church’. And she tartly concludes “Were that to happen, I think he should also be honoured as the patron saint of people everywhere who are oppressed by bureaucracy – especially bureaucracies run by philistines.”
