Phony “translation” excuse—as if only German speakers can understand that “Jah” can be used the way “Yeah” is used in English. The rest of Marx’s comment shows he meant exactly what he was accurately quoted as saying: “There are no general solutions, and I think that would not be right because we are talking about pastoral care for individual cases and that applies to other areas as well, which we cannot regulate, where we have no sets of rules.” This is invoking Francis’ phony all-purpose “pastoral” excuse for heresy and moral relativism.
Pastoral care yes! Anti-Biblical doctrines No! Good pastoral care need not - and cannot- excuse a cleric teaching directly against the word of God.
Just not the right time yet...give Francis (or perhaps his successor) time. The last 50 years have already worked in their favor.
