It is reported over at Sandro Magister and Catholic World Report that B 16’s letter included another paragraph that was neither read nor published, which was Benedict’s objection to 2 of the authors of Francis’ 11 books, one of these being Peter Hunermann, a man who had written Christopher Boegelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14162023841937939481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8940364093450837549.post-44331628920603346562018-03-18T18:20:38.849+00:002018-03-18T18:20:38.849+00:00Nicholas Bellord: the Knox quotation is from '...Nicholas Bellord: the Knox quotation is from 'Absolute and Abitofhell' (1913), his brilliant Drydenesque satire on the group of Oxonians who produced 'Foundations'.
