First divorce, now excommunication? Cardinal Walter Kasper, the head of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, has reprimanded Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi for his lack of "seriousness and sobriety." The Catholic daily Avvenire editorialized about Berlusconi’s "self-declared weakness for actresses in the bloom of youth,” said Italy deserved a PM who was the "mirror of the country's soul," and called on Berlusconi to be more "sober and somber." Defending himself on television against charges he slept with a minor, Berlusconi said "Would the Prime Minister be so crazy to get into a situation like that?" Everything we know so far about Berlusconi indicates that yes, yes he would.
