Talk:Roman Catholic Suburbicarian Diocese of Sabina–Poggio Mirteto

Cardinal Re continues in the TITLE of this see
At this writing, I am seeing:

Giovanni Battista Re (2002-2011)

Ernesto Mandara (2011), incumbent

I think you are confusing the cardinal-bishop and the bishop (ordinary), the latter (per 1962 motu propriu of Pope John XXIII) having the powers of the local bishop. Cardinal Re became cardinal bishop of the title of this see in 2002, and continues in that, concurrently with the bishop who has the local powers. It was an old problem of the cardinal bishop's other duties distancing him from the flock in his see. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.82 (talk) 15:19, 15 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Shouldn't this post-WWII practice be explained in the 'History' section? And don't use the word 'flock' to refer to the Catholics in a diocese. We are not sheep.  The term is insulting. --Vicedomino (talk) 01:38, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

This article still doesn't have the residential bishops of 1961 onwards, when the cardinal Bishop was relieved of administrative duties here in order for separate bishops to take on the duties of local ordinary here. Carlm0404 (talk) 02:38, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

Merger proposal
I propose merging Roman Catholic Diocese of Poggio Mirteto into Roman Catholic Suburbicarian Diocese of Sabina–Poggio Mirteto. The former is one of several historical designations of the area, which has its own article because it was current at the time of publishing of the Catholic Encyclopedia. — Moriwen (talk) 14:10, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
