Who is Raymond Burke?  In my view ...a man with an ego the size of his cappa magna,  still licking his wounds after losing a few rungs on his career ladder.  Among the Vatican courtesans he now finds himself out of favor...  his current threatening behavior is all he has remaining to keep himself relevant for some and in the news for all.   If he truly believed even half of what he claims to believe he would not be bad-mouthing and menacing the current pope.   It certainly appears that for Ray Burke this is all a very personal hill he plans to die on.
