I have this moment read your account of "Pastor Ignotus" (World News) with his appeal to that relic of the '70s, the "spirit of Vatican II", and his deriding of John Paul the Great for "fundamentalism".

One must seriously question Pastor Ignotus' understanding of, let alone adherence to, Catholic doctrine.

However my question goes to your proof-reader. Shouldn't the writer's nom-de plume read "Pastor Ignominious"?
