The head of the Austrian conference can say whatever he wants. No one can compel a blessing of any kind. (Just watch Francis pull his hand away from someone who wants to kiss the ring). But a priest is obliged to not participate in an act that is evil (Blessing something that is morally disordered).

“But a priest is obliged to not participate in an act that is evil (Blessing something that is morally disordered)”

True, but punitive measures will soon follow.

Bishop Strickland is proving that, as are the faithful Chinese Catholics, but enduring unjust punishment can bring its own blessings.

Maybe in 2024 a new prayer book with blessings for each of the Seven Deadly Sins? Plus an “All Sins” blessing, to be used to bless for example the 2024 Democratic platform
