The small group format is problematic in any situation, but for a gathering of actual leaders, men who have authority and don’t need coddling, it’s counterproductive to say the least.
Anyway, claiming it’s all a movement of the Spirit while the Cardinals are sitting around tables looking at screens doesn’t fly. I don’t want to be governed this way. Did the Apostles break up into small groups? Did one of them tell another “you can’t speak”??
