Subject: Lutherans rejoining the Catholic Church? Lutheran Ordinariate?

 

A Roman Catholic friend sent me an email to advise me that Pope Benedict is considering a Lutheran Ordinariate, similar to the Anglican Ordinariate created last year, so that Lutheran churches can rejoin the Catholic Church. http://www.catholicculture.org/news/...ture.org%29%29 Is this really true?  Are there very many Lutherans who are seeking to rejoin the Catholic Church?  Just how much of their "Lutheraness" will they be allowed to retain? I'm all in favor of Church unity, but not a one-sided capitulation, especially not a one-sided Lutheran capitulation! If any one has more details or website links, please leave them in a comment below.
