 Cardinal John J. O'Connor's response to Archbishop John Quinn's Oxford lecture, The Claims of the Primacy and the ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
I am surprised, however, by the archbishop's use of the English translation of the Catechism of the Catholic Church as illustrative of the undue exercise of authority by the Curia and a violation of collegiality.
The archbishop says, for example: "The majority of English-speaking cardinals of the world supported the original translation (of an English-speaking task force) and vigorously opposed any new translation." This is news to me and to other English-speaking cardinals I have talked with.
The archbishop says the process suggests that English-speaking cardinals and bishops were considered incompetent "as teachers of the faith to judge the appropriateness or accuracy of an ecclesiastical document in their own language." I simply don't know how the archbishop arrives at such a conclusion.

New Yorkers never knew what the press-friendly O’Connor might say, either from the pulpit or in an offhand remark to reporters after the final blessing.
After being in New York for more than five years, he has, by most accounts, failed to capture the imagination of the city—even as it has endured a good deal of crisis and soul-searching.
But his many critics inside and outside of the church say that he is aloof, sometimes to the point of reclusion, and that his resulting invisibility is stripping one of the city’s oldest and most venerable institutions of its heft.
