German Synod Breaks the Church's Neck - Cardinal Kasper

Moreover, a synod cannot be institutionalised: "A synodal supreme council, as is now envisaged, has no basis whatsoever in the entire history of the Church."
For the neo-conservative Cardinal Gerhard Müller, the German Synod and "two-thirds" of the German bishops are moving "not only into schism" but directly into “contradicting the Catholic creed" (Kath.net, 22 June).
Being Catholic does not mean using the financial resources of the German dioceses to make up a church, but is determined by content, Müller writes.
He is struck by the Synod's "fixation" on a sexuality reduced to mere libido satisfaction, which betrays an image of man without God. The Synod's talk about "love" is for him on the level of narcissistic sentimentality.
