Les critiques contre la "mondanité spirituelle" qui frappe l'Église par Sandro Magister ROME, le 27 mars 2013 – D’après une opinion très répandue qui est confortée par de nombreux témoignages, l'intention d’élire Jorge Mario Bergoglio pape a progressé de manière sensible parmi les cardinaux dans la matinée du samedi 9 mars, lorsque celui qui était alors l’archevêque de Buenos Aires est intervenu au cours de l’avant-dernière des congrégations – couvertes par le secret – qui ont précédé le conclave.
Ses propos ont fait une forte impression sur bon nombre de ses auditeurs. Le cardinal Ortega a raconté que, après l'intervention de Bergoglio pendant le pré-conclave, il s’était approché de lui et lui avait demandé s’il avait un texte écrit afin de le conserver. Bergoglio lui répondit que, à ce moment-là, il n’en avait pas. Un conclave rapide et surprenant. Timothy Dolan : le médiatique (62 ans) - Après Benoît XVI : quel avenir pour l'Eglise catholique ?

Rome If the readers of Italy’s paper of record, Corriere della Sera, had any say in the matter, the choice for the next pope would be clear: Cardinal Sean O’Malley of Boston.
Corriere today asked eight contributors, including their own Vatican beat writers as well as noted Vatican-watchers, to name their top three picks to be the next pope. O’Malley was mentioned by five of those eight experts, putting him in a tie with Odilo Pedro Scherer of Brazil, and just one mention ahead of Angelo Scola of Milan. Two other Americans, Timothy Dolan of New York and Donald Wuerl of Washington, got one mention apiece. Where O’Malley really separated himself from the pack was in an on-line readers’ poll on the Corriere web site. Ghanaian Cardinal Peter Turkson.

Among Cardinals, Deep Divisions Over Next Pope. “While there is doctrinal homogeneity between the cardinals,” said Paolo Flores d’Arcais, editor of the liberal Italian journal MicroMega, “the divisions are harsh between those who want change, in particular on issues of pedophilia and the Vatican bank, and the bishops who want to preserve the status quo of the Curia and preserve its power, even though on the surface they all say they want to change.”
