By Jules Gomes, Church Militant - Cardinal Luis Ladaria Ferrer, the former prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, canceled his participation in Pope Francis' pet project just after the vicariate of Rome published a report casting aspersions on the excommunication of Fr. Marko Ivan Rupnik... Ferrer's dropping out of the synodal process fueled speculation that the cardinal's withdrawal was a protest against the report compiled by Msgr. Giacomo Incitti, professor of canon law at Rome's Pontifical Urban University.
