Germany: Bad "Catholic" Youth Group Believes Saint Thomas More Is Bad

The decadent Diocesan Youth of the Diocese of Münster (KjG) is distancing itself from its patron saint, Thomas More (1478-1535), a towering humanist and martyr for the Faith.

The KjG passed a ridiculous resolution against the saint by 42 votes to 1, with 1 abstention. The title of the resolution is "Thomas Morus - a not so nice dude".

After a trip to London in 2022, the KjG clowns "studied" the saint's life, and the KjG grand inquisitors found points "which, in our opinion, clash with the values of the KjG".

They complain that St Thomas More persecuted supporters of the Reformation [who murdered him], that the reason for his canonisation was his opposition to the King's divorce, thus allegedly preventing "another marriage". The self-appointed inquisitors also accuse the saint of having "stood up for the old values of the Catholic Church" (sic).

Therefore, the KjG comedians will no longer emphasise St Thomas More as their patron saint. A "Thomas More Prize" will be renamed. A new name could be: "Who-Accepts-this-Prize-Is-A-Fool".

They also call for a nationwide debate on More's status as patron saint of the KjG.

It would indeed be a shame if such a wonderful saint were to be associated with such pathetic braggarts.

@Liam Ronan They ARE leaving Germany in droves, but probably not for the pathetic pseudocatholic Church there. Merkel is replacing native Germans with Middle Eastern Muslims.

@Liam Ronan @Naomi Arai According to this report at The most popular destination for German emigrants in Europe - German Federal Statistical Office "Of all European countries, Switzerland remains the most popular destination for German emigrants: at the beginning of 2022, approximately 311,300 German citizens resided in the Alpine republic. Their number has been rising for years: Compared to 2021, the increase amounted < 1% (approx. 1,800 people). The number of Germans acquiring Swiss citizenship is also steadily rising. In 2021, a new record was reached with around 7,940 naturalizations." @Naomi Arai Angela Merkel was replacing native Germans with Middle Eastern Muslims, but she has left office now - and apparently has at least recognised her failure. In October 2010, Merkel told a meeting of younger members of her conservative Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party at Potsdam that attempts to build a multicultural society in Germany had "utterly failed,"stating that: "The concept that we are now living side by side and are happy about it" does not work and "we feel attached to the Christian concept of mankind, that is what defines us. Anyone who doesn't accept that is in the wrong place here." She continued to say that immigrants should integrate and adopt Germany's culture and values. This added to a growing debate within Germany on the acceptable levels and mechanisms of immigration, its effects on Germany, and the degree to which Muslim immigrants had integrated into German society." I don't know the policy of her successor, Olaf Scholz, towards immigration.

They might be going to a false paradise though: see the post and my comment: Over 100 New Alleged Victims of Abuse in Swiss Church

@Liam Ronan I expect it has to do with ease and low cost. The US is certainly no free nation, as it was when your forefathers immigrated. An American citizen myself, I am considering moving elsewhere. We are following the patterns of the major communist dictatorships.

Among the reasons More is getting cancelled: “He stood up for the old values of the Catholic Church.” Modern, Western values have completely overwhelmed and destroyed the German Church.
