-Reforming the culture of the curia begins with imbuing those who serve there with an understanding that they have, and ought to have, no authority in the church, and certainly no authority over local bishops. The Curia exists to facilitate a ministry of service to the bishops.
-Authentic reform requires the restoration of the mechanisms of collegiality -- Synods, Conferences and Councils. Following the principle of subsidiarity, many functions now reserved to the Roman Curia -- including the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith -- ought to be dispersed to regional or national conferences of bishops.
-The right of the local church to participate in the selection of its bishop must be respected.  One way to do this is the ancient practice whereby the pope would select the bishop from a terna presented to him by the local church. The terna (three candidates) would emerge from a Synodal or Conciliar process, involving both clergy and laity.
