Neocon George Weigel: German Bishops Not Catholic Anymore

The Vatican should stop relating to dying European local churches as if they weren’t dying, George Weigel said.

Writing on firstthings.com (February 28), the biographer of John Paul II, calls for instance Germany a “mission territory” suggesting that the German Church should be put under ecclesiastical trusteeship and the failing German bishops should be replaced by more competent candidates from around the world.

He reminds that senior German churchmen have made it clear that they believe something different from what is contained in the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Weigel is a friend of the gay-obsessed Cardinal Christoph Schönborn of Vienna who leads another dying archdiocese. In April 2017, Weigel visited Austria and even lectured at a conference opened by Schönborn.

Mon épée est le Rosaire,
Mon bouclier, le Scapulaire :
En tant que fils de la Vendée,
Au Sacré-Cœur je suis dévoué.
Mais avec le Cœur de Marie
Il nous faut combattre aujourd'hui,
Car avec elle nous vaincrons
Le fils aîné du démon.

Weigel n'est pas plus malin,
N'y comprenant plus rien de rien !
Il faut dire que là-dedans,
Hors ou dans le Vatican,
Tout le monde est déboussolé !
Mais où faut-il remonter ?
À Vatican II, s'il vous plaît :
Là se trouve le navet !

The German bishops have the duty to stand up and demonstrate against abortion and homo marriage in Germany. Why don't they do it?
They´re in the money, but they do nothing against the excessive taxes and prices, and nothing against the disastrous labour- and housing policy in Germany.

"...German Church should be put under ecclesiastical trusteeship..."

He and the Vatican are also to blame, because they work together with the politicians. People have been burdened and impoverished for years. It is more likely that they're a confederated network of NGOs and NWO globalists.

Europe’s Wind Power Suicide Pact Killing 40,000 a Year
Europe’s suicidal green energy policies are killing at least 40,000 people a year.
That’s just the number estimated to have died in the winter of 2014 because they were unable to afford fuel bills driven artificially high by renewable energy tariffs.
But the real death toll will certainly be much higher when you take into account the air pollution caused when Germany decided to abandon nuclear power after Fukushima and ramp up its coal-burning instead; and also when you consider the massive increase in diesel pollution – the result of EU-driven anti-CO2 policies – which may be responsible for as many as 500,000 deaths a year.
But even that 40,000 figure is disgraceful enough, given that greenies are always trying to take the moral high ground and tell us that people who oppose their policies are uncaring and selfish.
