As I thought, the citation to One Peter you provide is an ultra-traditionalist operation, and the sum of thearticle is that MAYBE Pope Francis cancelled the consistory meeting because he would then avoid having the letter from he four cardinals presented to him.  What nonsense....if +Francis has already publicly stated he would not respond to the letter then why would he avoid it or even accept it if offered?  Your referenced article does not say that the pope cancelled the meeting for the reasons you state, it uses the words "may" and "speculated," etc.  So, unless you have a bug in the pope's rooms, learn to live with the uncertainty until we hear the reasons directly from the Vatican.  That's only fair.
