http://www.catholicnews.com/data/stories/cns/0900744.htm Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor of Westminster refused to grant permission for U.S. Archbishop Raymond L. Burke, head of the Supreme Court of the Apostolic Signature, to celebrate Mass in the extraordinary form of the Latin rite, called the Tridentine rite, in the London cathedral June 20. The cardinal used the Code of Canon Law to insist that the Mass be celebrated instead by Auxiliary Bishop John Arnold of Westminster.
Maybe someone can enlighten me. I know that Cardinal Murphy-O'Connor has made it difficult for the TLM to be heard in England and Wales, but since it's going to be said anyway, what difference does it make to him if his auxiliary bishop says it or if Archbishop Burke does? I know there's some kind of politics going on here but what is it all about? Simple "who's in control" games?
