Strange, but true!
Canonist Ed Peters notes the website of Msgr. Cormac Burke who is one of the world’s most influential canon lawyers and who has retired from the Roman Rota to work in Kenya.
So, indeed, one of the world’s most important canon law web sites is based in Kenya, and has a .ke extension to prove it.
GO KENYA!
Msgr. Burke has made available on his site a wealth of materials, including canonical ones, and those including sentences he wrote at the Rota (so others can read them and learn how such matters are handled at the Rota).
SWEET!
NOTE: I’ve been reading some of Msgr. Burke’s rotal sentences and I must say that I’m impressed. They are very sharp, precise, and thoughtful. I have to say that I feel for him when he’s ruling that the nullity of a marriage has not been proven, despite the petitioner’s desires, but I see why the evidence he’s ruling on genuinely does not prove the nullity of the marriage in terms of the law.
