Burke admits he does not know what the pope means

There is an extended interview with Cardinal Raymond Burke on the RTE website. Joe Little talks to the cardinal for 37 minutes.

In the interview Cardinal Burke says that Cardinal Kasper is 'wrong' concerning his views about marriage and that he has been since he was a young priest. He also says that Kasper misinterprets what the Fathers of the Church say.

On a number of occasions he supports his views by saying that  "many people and priests" support him.

The US cardinal is of the opinion that a broad discussion is "not helpful".

He says that it is not for him to judge if this pontificate is in serious trouble nor does he know what the pope means on a number of issues.

The cardinal gave a talk yesterday in Limerick. The talk was hosted by 'The Catholic Voice'.
