Is this the only Basilica of St. Francis Xavier in the world? RickK 04:04, 10 May 2004 (UTC)

I'm not sure if this is the only St. Francis Xavier Basilica or not. I think there's at least one other one, but I don't know where.

I'm just thinking about disambiguation. RickK 04:17, 10 May 2004 (UTC)

I dispute the assertion that this is the only basilica in the U.S. that is outside of a major metropolitan area. St. Joseph's Basilica, in Webster, Massachusetts, is also outside of a major metropolitan area. There is no way anyone could reasonably argue that Webster, MA is within a major metropolitan area.

[edit] which "high-ranking cardinal"

Who is the high-ranking German cardinal that is being referenced in the article? I am not disputing the fact that the cardinal visited the church, I just think that the sentence would sound more authoritative if it mentioned the cardinal by name rather than simply calling him a "high-ranking cardinal." nitpicky, I know....
