The Feast of the Presentation - February 2nd, 2009 (Candlemas)

Father John Zuhlsdorf has an incredible 17 posts since I checked yesterday. He seems to see the overall picture of the firestorm that has been ignited by the lifting of the excommunications by the Holy Father and the reaction.

I will present a sampling of links to illustrate this overview. Others are also seeing this in its overall form.
