Many, seeing the problem as a loss of confidence, desire to reform the church to become more in touch with its flock. But the traditionalists see things otherwise.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCardinal Antonio Ruggieri is among those traditionalists who believe the church's problems stem from a lack of church discipline. A man with legendary bulldog tenacity, he believes he's the only one with the backbone to do what needs to be done.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOn the eve of the Conclave, little does the College of Cardinals realize they are about to set in motion one of the most significant innovations in several centuries-the appointment of a lay cardinal-sowing the seeds for a shocking power grab that will shake the church at its very foundations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Harry L.
