Brandmüller: Languishing German Church Will Draw Nobody From the Woodwork
The Amazon Synod was about economics and politics, the German Synodal Way is about power, participation, sexual morality, priest marriage and women's offices.
Cardinal Walter Brandmüller, 90, writes this in the December issue of the German Vatican Magazine.
In view of the selection of topics for the German Synodal Way, Brandmüller writes that divine revelation, Christ's incarnation, the redemption and the consummation of times no longer play any role for the "languishing German Catholicism."
He explains to the German bishops that it is a "grotesque and comic illusion" to think that a "theologically degenerated agenda” will draw anybody from the woodwork.

No use. They are mostly rotten homosexuals cowardly to the core clinging on to their comfortable jobs. The disgusting dubia cardinals are also dismissed having pretended to make a case but then backed off. The situation is that Jorge bergoglio not having aceeded successfully to the Chair of St Peter has managed to retain tight control over all the clergy by abusing the oath of obedience these men take. …More
No use. They are mostly rotten homosexuals cowardly to the core clinging on to their comfortable jobs.

The situation is that Jorge bergoglio not having aceeded successfully to the Chair of St Peter has managed to retain tight control over all the clergy by abusing the oath of obedience these men take. The wool has been pulled over most catholic eyes who think [wrongly] that pope benedict resigned the office of the papacy. He resigned the ministry, not the office. Therefore he alone remains the true pope. But he is a thoroughyl confused man having fed on false modernist theology for much of his life he believed he could turn the papacy into some type of shared collegial office. He is and eas wrong. Pope benedict could sort the mess out in the morning with one word but alas I believe it is too late.
