Cardinal Marx, a member in good standing in Francis' Gang o' Nine, had earlier said the German Church cannot wait for synodal statements, as marriage and family ministry has to be undertaken now, according to an article in Die Tagespost, translated by the blog Catholic Conclave.
Cardinal Marx, the archbishop of Munich and Freising, said as far as doctrine is concerned, the German episcopate remains in communion with the Church, but on individual issues of pastoral care, the synod cannot prescribe in detail what we have to do in Germany.
The German bishops want to publish their own pastoral letter on marriage and family after the synod, the article says.
We are not just a subsidiary of Rome, Cardinal Marx said. Each episcopal conference is responsible for the pastoral care in their culture and has to proclaim the Gospel in its own unique way. We cannot wait until a synod states something, as we have to carry out marriage and family ministry here.

The schism is in full bloom, and Francis ignores it.
If the Catholic Church succumbs to this assault, it will finalize my disconnect with it.
I did not leave my church; it left me.
Save the Church, Excommunicate them now!
But you ARE a “subsidiary of Rome”!
And, NO, you CAN NOT “proclaim the Gospel in your own unique way” when “unique” means HERESY!
> No one would say why the study day was held in confidence. So secret was the meeting that even prominent Jesuits at the Gregorian were completely unaware of it. The Register learned about it when Jean-Marie Guénois leaked the information in a story in Le Figaro.
Of course they are colluding together behind closed doors. Their plan is to use faggotry to make all Christians look intolerant so they can say the pastor’s teachings are “hate speeches “. That way they can kill Christianity and force faggotry against people against their will with one stone. They do that and they kill the family unit and individuality.
Welcome to the New World Order, Comrade...
Clearly there is nothing wrong with Fr. Schockenhof (and Cardinal Marx and the other disgraceful schimstics/heretics) that cannot be cured by burning them at the stake. As a punishment, it has a wondrous ability to concentrate the miscreants' mind(s), if any, on their respective moral failings and outrages.
Disgraceful.
The speed at which societal norms, traditions and morals are crumbling is breathtaking.
I rest my case.
Sounds like Cardinal Marx might have a thesis he wants to pin up on a door somewhere.
I’ve thought the same thing. It staggers the mind how quickly technology can create an about-face in public opinion on truly foundational issues.
“French Biblicist and Ratzinger Prize-winner Anne-Marie Pelletier praised the dialogue that took place between theologians and bishops as a real sign of the times.
So true, but not in the way Pelletier thinks. The storm is nearly upon us.
“The speed at which societal norms, traditions and morals are crumbling is breathtaking.”
Welcome to fundamental transformation friend.
While Isis blows up historical artifacts, rapes, pillages and burns over their ever growing landscape, Obama is far more diabolical, systematic, and under the radar; he tears the institutions down from within, overwhelms all systems, riles the population, the courts, the races, and all societal norms. All the while spending us into abject oblivion and destroying vast amounts of current and future wealth.
Yet people love him and defend him.
A rogue’s gallery of those influenced by satan, not the Holy Spirit.
Hey, at least people will feel good about themselves again!
Father Schockenhoff? Name states it all....
The German church has been in “schism” for years. I would prefer these protestant wannable bishops to be excommunicated.
When the Catholic Church finally gives into the pressure for gay marriage...there will only be one un-splintered world religion left that will stand up for traditional marriage of a man and a women. The Mormons.
Was "women" vs "woman" a Joseph Smith slip?
