| | wcr:02/24x/2003 -- Cardinal Lubomyr Husar: Papal candidate seeks reunion between East, West |
 | | Cardinal Lubomyr Husar, head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church, is more amused than embarrassed that he is considered a dark horse candidate to become the next pope. |
 | | Husar, the major Archbishop of Lviv, was appointed as a cardinal only two years ago in a move viewed as an attempt by Pope John Paul to support Catholic churches in predominantly Eastern Orthodox countries where, Husar admits, ecumenism is at a virtual standstill. |
 | | "Husar is bright, modest, pastoral, and as a patriarch of one of the 21 Eastern rite Catholic churches, he feels the case for collegiality and inculturation in his bones," Allen wrote in a later column. |
