Questions/Answers
What is the status of thebishop who is a holocaustdenier?
As reported in the media the Pope has lifted an excommunication order against a bishop called Williamson who Denies the holocaust happened. What does this entail?, is it just this man can partake of the ritual rights open too every other practising Roman Catholic. Or that he can officiate as a Bishop?.
As i understand it he can take a full part again in church matters and yes, is still a Bishop. Goes to show how out of touch our German Pope is! Laughable really isn't it? He was a Hitler youth then he gets this fool to deal with. Wonder if he has explained exactly what happened to all those Jewish people, Gypsies and infirm people who went on train journeys to Poland? Personally, i would make this recalcitrant 'Bishop' go to Auschwitz and see the evidence with his own eyes - stupid man!
How can I address a letter toa Catholic Bishop?
I want to write a letter to my bishop, but I don't know how to address him.
Assuming you are in the USA..... The address is ... Most Reverend John Doe Bishop of Centertown Street Address City, State, Zip Then the greeting is: Most Reverend and Dear Bishop Doe and when you meet him in person, you call him "Your excellency"
What's the difference betweenan archbishop and a bishop inthe Catholic Church?
I don't understand what elevates a bishop to the title of archbishop....Is it something the bishop does?? or what....
It's not necessarily what the bishop does, but the area he governs over. A bishop is responsible for all the souls in his diocese (or area he governs) and if that area is large enough, it's called an archdiocese. The title of archbishop simply refers to a bishop who resides over an archdiocese, thus having more people to watch over. It has no relation to the bishop's achievements, etc., but rather the are and population of the diocese he's in charge of. Hope that helped :]
