Geerlings was appointed in 2010 by Benedict XVI and resigned 2017 due to ill-health.
According to Kirche-und-Leben.de, he told the audience that his “opinion” did not correspond to Church teaching [as if this discrepancy would be of little importance].
Geerlings believes that it is “already now” possible to change Church teaching about [gravely sinful] homosexual fornication.
Elisabeth Frenke, a pastoral collaborator, confirmed this by adding that she knows priests [in the plural] who already "bless" homosexuals.
This proves that Geerlings was deceiving the listeners, by speaking in the future about what already is happening in the present.
