The Holy Father received in audience this morning, in the office of the Paul VI Hall: -H.E. Bp. Gerhard Ludwig Müller, Bishop of Regensburg (Federal Republic of Germany).
Yes, we know what that separate audience possibly means.
And perhaps our Brazilian readers could tell us in the comments what influence the newly-appointed Secretary of the Congregation for Bishops, Abp. Lorenzo Baldisseri, had in the formation of their current episcopate: he has spent almost ten years as Apostolic Nuncio to Brazil and that is enough time to shape a national episcopate according to the Nuncio's own image.
P.S. As we noted yesterday, "several Italian sources" mention "the possible nomination of Cardinal Amato, current Prefect of Saints and former Secretary of CDF as the more probable replacement of Cardinal Levada as Prefect of CDF." Place your bets.
