Since February 2013, Francis is the pope and this woman was almost certainly awarded by FRANCIS, not by Ratzinger ...
It is a mockery of Ratzinger’s oeuvre to award such a German with the prize named after him.

Crazy old crone

I'm not familiar with the parish structures in other countries, but females have nearly ruined the Church in the U.S. Most especially the more N.O. churches, and churches that have progressive priests. The Societies and Oratories have a much more structured base as they only say the Latin mass / or the N.O. in Latin, and need less assistance from the parishioners and councils concerning the liturgy.

Benedict XVI has duped many Catholics over the years. He was JPII's right hand man who did nothing with peodophile priests, he was one of the leaders of the modernist VII Council, he supports and promotes ecuminism (all religions are same , we worship the same God), forced to step down because of Vatican Bank scandal and scandals with predatory priests, says Jews should not be converted, promoted intereligious prayer conference, promoted Moto Proprio but has not offered the TLM. I could go on and on about this man. He is a modernist to the core. Don't fall for his neo-con persona.

You imply Benedict aproved the granting of the prize to this woman, why? Do you believe everything that comes out of the drug-fuelled orgy organizers' mouths? Do you believe everything the Sankt Hallen mafia says? Do you believe...... ETC. Well, I don't!!!

B16 is our pope but he's not a good one. He's a modernist.
