Schönborn alleged that the death penalty "contradicts human dignity” – although God orders it in the Bible. Then he justified Francis’ decision to “change” the Catechism of the Catholic Church regarding the death penalty.
He even mystified that Francis through this decision “at last fulfilled a deep wish of Pope John Paul II" [as if John Paul II could not have done this by himself if he had wanted it].
Schönborn was the editorial secretary of the Catechism prepared under Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger.
