"Cardinal" Giovanni Todiso--has any one heard of him? Is he legit? Where does he hail from? I have been told his is here in the USA. Only other info i was given, he supposedly is a "Catholic" Cardinal. who worked with the Vatican in the 1950s as a Bishop. Pehaps he is still a bishop, recently noted as having moved to position of Cardinal within the past year(?). Is passionate, or with an extremely intense manner, opposed to traditional Catholicism, based on the claims of Pope Benedict 15th...who forbid Catholics to prefix their names with "traditional" or "liberal", saying that Catholicis Catholic. You either are or you aren't. That much is true, (however, the Church hadn't been hijacked by V2. He claims not to be V-2). He appears to supports priest of Fraternal Order of St Peter as well is an advocate and is in support of the apparitions of Me?ugorje. Any legit info

His name does not appear in the lists compiled by Catholic-Hierarchy.org (http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org/country/b0c2.html#t). His name does not appear in the lists of living bishops either.

It looks like he's a fraud. (Though his support for Me?ugorje should have told you that.)

His name is listed on the Tribunal of the Roman Rota;

A) He'd be over 100 if he were a bishop in the 50s - average age for episcopal consecration seems to be about 45. Sometimes, you get a man who becomes a bishop in his 30s, but that's very, very rare. That means he went from priest to bishop in less than a decade.

B) Bishops retire at 75 and cardinals are picked usually as active bishops of dioceses

C) If he were opposed to Tradition, why would he support the FSSP - an organization whose entire modus operandi is to say the Latin Mass?

D) You might be thinking of Angelo Todisco who was born in 1956.

In general inquiries, most echo TKGS's post. As to his claimed age,according to sources who do claim his existance, claim he is in his mid 90s, and has been in hiding since the V2 changes. Why he would allegedly support Faternal order of St Peter-- if I knew the answer to that I would not know.

Even this website does not recognize him as either a cardinal or a bishop. If he is claiming to be either he is a fraud. More likely, since this name appears as an official of the Roman Rota, the information the opening poster heard is simply wrong. He is evidently simply a Vatican functionary and a monsignor.
