Schismatic Germans: Cardinal Woelki Warns Against "German National Church"

The worst result of the German Synodal/Suicidal Way would be if it led to a split from the Church, Cologne Cardinal Rainer Maria Woelki told KNA.de (17 September).

He warned that "something like a German national church would then come into being".

Woelki criticised the low theological standard of the synodal texts: "The whole world is currently looking at the Church in Germany and at this Synodal Way, so we simply cannot make fools of ourselves by being theologically incompetent."

De Profundis
The German bishops' conference president has responded to Cardinal Woelki's warning of a "national Church" in Germany, affirming he sees no risk of a schism resulting from the "Synodal Process". In 2019, Pope Francis warned of a split in his letter to German Catholics.
