A Rose By Any Other Name

(CNS/Paul Haring)
A rose is still a rose, no matter what you call it.  This is what came to my mind when I read this article, China tells mainland media how to refer to retired Hong Kong bishop: HONG KONG (CNS) -- Chinese propaganda chiefs have ordered mainland journalists not to describe outspoken Cardinal Joseph Zen Ze-kiun as the Bishop Emeritus.  They have been told to call him "former bishop."  He's still a cardinal.

Silly?  The devil's in the details.
