Not to be too pedantic, but this was not the whole bleedin' Catholic Church in Germany, it was the Commission for Marriage and Family of the German Bishops' Conference, and in particular two evil prelates, Koch and Bode.

They may well be getting a majority of moral midgets to sign on at some point, but it is not yet a done deal.

IT may well precipitate schism *among* them, as well as schism between them and Rome.

I can't even think my own goose of a Bishop could think himself to be "in communion with" these arrogant apostates,who propose "normalizing" divorce/remarriage basically on the same morally degraded terms as the Protestant churches in Germany (and here.)

I would venture to say those moral midgets include one Jorge Bergoglio, who has not raised his voice to stop this train wreck.

Before he became Pope Benedict, Ratzinger wrote a book in which he projected that the Church would shrink drastically in the future, as unfit shepherds were removed — but that the remnant would be much more faithful.
