Can a knowledgeable Catholic on board tell us the roles of an Emeritus Archbishop after retirement?

Eyah

I remember the debate he participated in back in 2009 in London. The topic was "The Catholic Church is a Force for Good in the World". Supporting the motion was this Cardinal Onaiyekan and British MP Anne Widdercomb, and against the motion were Christopher Hitchens and Stephen Fry. The team of Hitchens and Fry won that debate after intellectually decimating the Archbishop and the MP. The Archbishop was stammering when serious questions were put to him grin

Before the debate, about 50% of the audience voted against the motion, about 20% were undecided, and about 30% supported the motion. After the debate, about 80% voted against the motion, around 5% were undecided, and 15% were for the motion.

Final verdict that day in London was, the Catholic Church is NOT a force for good in the world.

More like an elder statesman. No longer actively involved in d day to day running of the diocese. Someone younger will come in and be d active one.

Both Nigerian Muslims & Christians love this man of GOD for his piety & principles on national issues unlike shady billionaire pastors among whom are Oritsajafor & Oyedepo who are running after worldly materials by milking their followers dry & depriving the whole Nigerians through questionable dealings.
