Trolling the Pope's minions

In case the Scribd version of Cardinal Muller's summary of Catholic beliefs isn't working, the PDF can be found HERE. or you can read it on Sandro Magister's blog.

it is the type of clear succinct explanation of the faith that the Pope is supposed to be proclaiming, but doesn't, hence it is being "spun" by the Pope's minions as a personal attack on the Pope.

DavidWarren's blog suggests you read it slowly with a cup of coffee/tea and think about it. Sounds about right.

But if you are in a hurry, or have ADHD, I suggest you read the Satire Blog, Eccles is saved, who puts it this way:

Gotcha!" says Cardinal Müller

With a fine piece of trolling, Cardinal Müller, formerly of the CDF, has managed to leave egg on the faces of a variety of commentators, including Cardinal Kasper, Professor Massimo Faggioli, and Austen Ivereigh-Tusk.

Explained Müller to us: "I am on a hit list of cardinals whose every word will be attacked by those whose mouths are bigger than their brains... I therefore produced my "Manifesto of Faith", consisting of excerpts from the Bible and the Catholic Catechism (documents with which my critics aren't very familiar), knowing that some people would jump on them."

...the great theologian Massimo "Beans" Faggioli was also caught in Müller's web, when he labelled use of the Bible and CCC as "spreading dissent" and wondered whether the CDF could do anything about this scandalous outbreak of Catholic doctrine among cardinals. 

And this troll about summarizes the whole kerfuffle
