Cardinal Eijk: “Pope Francis Completely Incomprehensible”
Writing in ncregister.com (May 7), Eijk states the obvious, that even if all German bishops agree to “allow” Protestant Communion, it is still contrary to the Faith,
“The practice of the Catholic Church, based on her faith, is not determined and does not change statistically when a majority of an episcopal conference votes in favor of it, not even if unanimously.”
Eijk accuses Francis of “failing to create clarity”. He concludes, “Great confusion is created among the faithful and the unity of the Church is endangered”.
The Cardinal points out that [Francis'] individual case trick will end up with all Protestants [or Moslems] receiving Communion,
“The general experience with this type of adjustment is that the criteria are quickly extended.”
It has been a tacit consent in Germany for decades not only to allow Protestants to receive Communion but even to invite them to do so.
