Mike- There's not much doubt you are correct about his bishop! From the Wikipedia site on Sungenis: "He also directed him to stop using the word "Catholic" in his organization's name.[] Sungenis has stated that he will only comply with Bishop Rhoades' directive to stop writing about Jews and Judaism if he is forced to do so "under the aegis of a canonical trial".[]"
I do remember that he is "of interest" to the Southern Poverty Law Center for his anti-Semitism. He claims to be anti-Zionist but not anti-Semitic. (Don't think *too long* about that one!). So I think we don't need to fear the Catholic Church reversing it's position on Galileo any time soon. :) As to whether this is the next step after creationism, I don't know what to think. I'd like to say this appears to be a "nut case" with a few zealots interested in following. On the other hand that is exactly what I thought about creationism.

Note that the first author on the book that Marc Carter refers to is Robert Sungenis who is also the first speaker listed on the "ad" that Chris Green linked to. There is a Wikipedia entry on him (yada-yada) which provide some background information but does not seem to explain much; see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Sungenis I suspect that Sungenis' bishop is not happy about his use of the word Catholic in advertising the "conference". There is a website that seems to be associated with Sungenis' position but several attempts to reach it only produced a bandwidth exceeded error (i.e., too many people trying to access the site).
