Only days after making peace with a Holocaust Denier, Pope Ratzinger has elevated Gerhard Maria Wegner as Auxiliary Bishop of Linz, Austria. Wegner drew attention some time ago when he wrote that Hurricane Katrina was in fact divine retribution against the city of New Orleans because it had "the best brothels and the prettiest prostitutes."


I do not know where Wegner went to seminary, but it definitely was not in New Orleans. Wegner was silent as to the sins of those in Gulfport, Mississippi which was also destroyed by Katrina. (I guess we have to assume that they visited the prostitutes in New Orleans.)
