Gerard,
I didn't know that the Bishop carried a cross into St. Peters' in 2000. Cool! Still, we will have to disagree about the supposed "rotteness" of the NO. I'll stick with the Holy Father, who has never said that the NO is rotten. He has complained about the abuses that have occurred with the NO, but not that it is intrinsically rotten. Regarding different standards of what constitutes "rotten," perhaps it is all in the eyes of the beholder.
