Cardinal Biffi has won praise

An interesting delivery of a Lenten retreat has Pope Benedict XVI praising Cardinal Biffi for his spiritual exercises. This article on CWN has hit the highlight of this address with this:

The Pope went on to say that the outspoken Italian cardinal-- who during one meditation had referred to the “spirit of the Antichrist” in the enthusiasms of the age-- had delivered a “very accurate and precise diagnosis of our situation today.”

On lifesite.net, the details are presented of the address given at the Lenten Retreat. It's interesting for discussion, to say the least.
