De lo mejor del Sacro colegio.
Era Salesiano. Tenía 86 años.
<
Fue creado cardenal por Benedicto XVI y participó en el Cónclave que eligió a Francisco. Supongo que no tuvo que arrepentirse de su voto.

RIP. Tiene publicada una Cristología que merece la pena, traducida por D. Demetrio Fernández.
De los escasos purpurados italianos presentables, como Piacenza, Scola y algún otro. Los demás, desecho de tienta, y los de este pontificado, un espanto, con franciscanos a pares (a cual peor).
