In a way I feel sorry as his defender are probably suffering from a real Excedrin Tension headache with this.

Leo X may have excommunicated Luther, but he procrastinated for so long that it almost appears he helped him. The same could be said of Chas V. On the other hand, the Turkish threat was a distraction for Chas. preventing him from concentrating his full forces on the schism.

I can recall several years ago the media stating that Luther would be canonized.

I would not be so quick to condemn an action that has not even taken place. I suppose we will give credence to the media since they are such a reliable source of information.

Christine Mugridge, The Rome Correspondant for Relevant Radio pointed out that this is nothing new and that John Paul II actually is the one who lifted the excommunication. She reported on this fact when a caller who was absolutely confused and scandalized called the radio show with a complete listing of Luther's heresies and even quotes of St. Pope Pius V. The shows host and Ms. Mugridge pointing out that we have new ways of looking at things of the past and that Rome now interpets things in a different way than the Popes in the past.
More true words were never spoken. If the heretic Luther stays "anathema" then were does that put the modern Popes who agree with the "drunken lout" as Pius V called Luther?
