While I think its a mistake to put people in 2nd marriages in the same category of serial sodomists...what in the world is “openness” toward sin?

Sounds non-sensical to me.

And why are German cardinals and such who advocate for sin....still in leadership?

The German hbishops have, by and large, tons of money (from the German Church Tax) and emptying churches. They are the largest non-Governmental employer in Germany.

I have an underlying suspicion that Pope Francis, underneath it all, deeply distrusts them. What about the high appointments he has given some of them? As they say, "Keep your friends close; keep your enemies closer." He's going to let them expose themselves for a season; then the upcoming Synod is going to shut them down.

Which is devoutly to be desired.

It's obvious the Synod is not expected to go their way.
