text: My take on the issue is that  Benedict is responsible for enabling the condition he wishes to address. To be "co-responsible" is to share in the blame for the problem. I want no part of this. Furthermore,the Kingdom of God is not the institutional church and one does not enter it by joining. One enters by regeneration through the Holy Spirit indwelling us. 
       One is (I am) always disappointed when Benedict is quoted in some context or other like this because he did more to bring down the church in our time than any save Cardinal Law, perhaps. Notice the complete absence of any mention of the Bishops Pastoral on Social Justice. This present crop was handpicked by JPII and unless you read PEOPLE OF GOD by Penny Lernoux you are not going to know how JPII worked to undo the work of the Spirit in that era of church history.
       Using B16 as an anodyne for what ails the church makes as much sense as treating a boil with pus. Pardon my French. 
      Great comments.
