Failed Friar Commercialises His Pseudo-Nun Marriage

Ulrich Heinen, 68, and his concubine Beate, 78, from Wassenach, Germany, got married "in church" in the summer of 2023.

By now, "church marriage" is possible for anyone and anything in Germany. Heinen is a failed religious. Three times he was Superior General of the Franciscan Friars of the Holy Cross, founded in Germany.

After 42 years of religious life and a decade of a double life, he entered into a civil "marriage" with a certain Beate in 2020. Since then he has been touring the lascivious and laughing oligarchic media, selling his story under the headline "Monk Marries Nun".

As a reward, "the Church" has now granted him an official "marriage", which Heinen is trying to capitalise on with the book "When Nun & Monk Find Love".

Beate has a daughter. More than fifty years ago (1963-1974), she was in a Benedictine convent without ever taking final vows.

Heinen had known her for three years when he became Superior General for the third time.

The 78-year-old told the likewise lascivious Katholisch.de (2 September): "That meant waiting another six years [for hot love]".

@Liam Ronan thanks for bringing back the memories. My grandmother would sing that to me back in the '50's." We went to the elephant's fair, the birds and bees were there, the old baboon by the light of the moon was combing Liam's hair(insert name). The monkey he got drunk, he fell on the elephant's trunk, the elephant sneezed and fell on his knees and that was the end of the monk, monk, monk". end

If I were going to risk Hell, it wouldn't be for a 78-year-old chick.

I never heard of the Franciscans of the Holy Cross, unless it's a tiny Order of Brothers, founded in Germany in the 1850's.
The only way someone these days gets to be superior General of an Order 3x, is that there are so few members there are not any other choices.

But Jesus bowing himself down, wrote with his finger on the ground. 7 When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. Douay-Rheims
