Estanislao Esteban Cardinal Karlic (born February 7, 1926 in Oliva, Argentina) was ordained to the priesthood on December 8, 1954. In 1977, he was appointed Auxiliary Bishop of Córdoba, Argentina as well as Titular Bishop of Castrum. Six years later he was installed as Coadjutor Archbishop of Paraná and later made Archbishop, which he retired from in 2003. In 2007, he was elevated to the position of Cardinal and installed as Cardinal-Priest of Beata Maria Vergine Addolorata a piazza Buenos Aires on February 2, 2008. Because he was elevated when he was over 80, he will never serve in a papal conclave. Cardinal Karlic is known for his theologically moderate evaluation of conservative and liberal ideas and stresses the importance of family as “the sanctuary of love and of life.”
