    Strike one off the list?

    Papa Ratzi Post alerted me to this article in Scotsman:

    BRITAIN'S highest representative at the Vatican, who had been tipped to become a cardinal, has been moved sideways because of his "lifestyle", it was reported yesterday.

    Bishop Michael Fitzgerald, 68, had been among the candidates likely to be given the coveted red cardinal's hat by Pope Benedict XVI next month, when he holds his first consistory - a special gathering of cardinals. But instead he has been given a new job as the papal ambassador in Egypt - widely seen as a demotion despite nearly 20 years service.

    Read the rest.

    I'm not sure what is meant by "lifestyle" - the article only mentions he has been reported to have "doctrinal differences" with Benedict. Maybe someone else could fill in the blanks?
