Dr. Edward Peters has posted his initial thoughts on the promotion of Archbp. Burke to the Signatura . I obviously defer to him on his "insider knowledge," but echo his sentiments at being a bit sad as well. Archbp. Raymond Burke is a gem and will be greatly missed in the American Church. I can imagine that St. Louis will be extremely sad to see him go. However, his talents are needed in the Eternal City it seems.

Fr. John Zuhlsdorf of What Does the Prayer Really Say has a good deal of commentary on the situation in Kansas . He has covered this fairly thoroughly if you wish an update on what happened and why. Update: Dr. Edward Peters, JD, JCD also has a post on this story

Dr. Edward N. Peters of In the Light of the Law puts forth the proposal that those who commit euthanasia should be excommunicated . For some months I have been researching and writing an article on euthanasia in canon law. I hoped against hope that it might remain an academic exercise, but (to judge from, say, this report on the practice of euthanasia in Belgium ) the speed with which the Western, specifically Christian, protection of innocent life is collapsing suggests that one of my projected canonical recommendations deserves an earlier hearing than appearance in a peer-reviewed journal can afford. Simply put, I recommend that euthanasia be made an excommunicable offense under the 1983 Code of Canon Law . I hope his proposal is given serious consideration in light of his arguments .

Edward N. Peters, JD, JCD , has a marvelous blog called " In the Light of the Law " that deals with issues of Canon Law. It seems that in Dr. Peters' view, National Catholic Reporter correspondent, Joe Feuerherd , has gotten himself into "big" trouble with some published comments.
