From Lifesite News reads; (link below for full article and petition)
Cardinal Raymond Burke, one of the strongest pro-life and
pro-family voices in the Catholic Church, has confirmed that the rumors are
true: he will soon be moved from his position as the prefect of the Vatican ’s Apostolic Signatura.
For the past 6 years, Cardinal Burke has served in this
role, heading up the highest court of the Catholic Church. He is now reportedly
to be moved to the largely ceremonial position of patron of the Sovereign
Military Order of Malta.
Among Cardinal Burke’s many actions in defense of the truths
of life and family has been his courageous stance in support of canon 915,
which states that ministers of communion “must” refuse the Eucharist to public
and “obstinate” sinners. The cardinal himself has most frequently advocated the
use of this canon in the cases of pro-abortion Catholic politicians.
Most recently, he exerted his influence during the Vatican’s
Synod on the Family, publicly decrying efforts by some bishops to hijack the
synod to push a radical agenda, and steering the Synod towards a more orthodox
conclusion.
The transfer of Cardinal Burke from his Vatican post is
undoubtedly a loss to the pro-life and pro-family movement, with his role at
the Vatican having helped to amplify the cardinal’s prophetic voice.
