Magister on Benedict's firm response to China

Magister's latest:

The Pope Is Asking China for Freedom, Not Forgiveness

"The Chinese authorities have begin ordaining illegitimate bishops again. But this time the Vatican is responding firmly. It is the new course inaugurated by Benedict XVI."

Magister reproduces the statement by Navarro-Valls issued six years ago, the last time China pulled this stunt:

“I must express the surprise and disappointment on the part of the Holy See that this decision should come at a moment when a number of voices are being raised that leave a good deal of hope for the normalization of relations between the Holy See and Beijing, while this action poses obstacles that will certainly cause difficulties in this process.”

Magister next includes the text of Navarro-Valls' statement issued in response to the most recent Chinese ordinations ... can you see the difference? I sure could.
