The journalist asked several times if there will be married priests in Europe. Schönborn affirmed saying that he “hopes” and “advocates” for this.
He fooled the audience by claiming that celibacy “remains the basic pattern” but insisted that “there will certainly also be married priests.”
Schönborn is dishonest because history has proven many times after the Reformation that, once celibacy is abolished, the “basic pattern” will be a married clergy.
