Marini to be named Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship?!?!?

… Is your bar stocked? It’s gonna be a long papacy.

Reliable word from Rome this night, Archbishop Marini to be named Liturgy chief as prefect of CDW within days/hours. Very sad news indeed.

Looking at the bright side; if the rumors prove to be true at least that Bad Vestments blog might get regularly updated now. I’ll just be staying drunk till the next conclave, m’kay.

Around the web: Archbishop Piero Marini: ‘Civil Right’ to Unnatural Unions and from 2010, Good Article on the Papal Master of Ceremonies, Once the Modernist Gloss is Wiped Away.
