Schnurr said those conversations determined the group operated in a way that conflicts with Catholic teaching by permitting activities, badges and awards that normalize ideology contrary to the Catholic understanding of the human person made male and female in the image and likeness of God.
They did the Girl Scouts a huge favor. Stay as far away from those pedophiles as you can, girls.

(37,113 posts)Those concerns include an "Inclusive. Together" patch that encourages girls to discuss sexual orientation, a "Multicultural Community Celebration Fun Patch" that recognized LBGTQ+ Pride Month, and the Girl Scouts' social media promotion of Glitterary, a digital literary magazine for LBGTQ+ youth. Individual troops and girls are not required to use the patches or to share materials connected to them, but Catholic church officials objected to the scouts' decision to make them available or to promote them.

(5,300 posts)Most Cardinals are Archbishops, but most archbishops are not Cardinals.
Cardinals are a special honor given by the Pope; they are eligible to be electors when a Pope is chosen, among other honors and duties which I am not familiar with. When a cardinal dies, the title does not revert to another individual.
Archbishops are bishop leaders of an archdiocese, which is an ongoing entity when the leader dies or retires; another person/clergyman is appointed to take his place.
I'm sure others can give a more complete answer, but this is a start.
