The website of the German District of the SSPX has accused the Tagespost of censorship and provides evidence. [Kreuznet.de] http://www.kreuz.net/article.9951.html
Finally, an opponent who can think logically - but "Die Tagespost" has censured him.The website of the German District of the SSPX recently reported this in a recently published article.
The question is Rev. Martin Rhonheimer, a Swiss Opus Dei priest and professor at the roman Opus Dei Univerrsity Santa Croce. On the 27th of September, Rev. Rhonheimer published an opinion piece in the German paper, "Tagespost", which later was posted by the neo-conservative Linz based 'kath.net'.
According to the testimony of the Pius website, Rev. Rhonheimer demonstrated, "unsual clarity", that the Church has changed its doctrine on religious freedom in the Second Vatican Council:
"Himself a partisan of the new teaching, is still honorable enough, to repudiate the quest for harmony beteween the traditional teaching and the documents on Religious Freedom of the Second Vatican Council" - maintains the website.
Rev. Rhonheimer concedes that SSPX Fr. Mathias Gaudron is correct in a letter to the editor, likewise, against the falsity of this concord:
"That was for the Tagespost too much honor for an SSPX priest, for the corresponding section can only be read on 'kath.net'" commented the website and cited the "publicly censured" portion:"
Father Mattias Gaudron has in fact, dialogue participant of the german Society of Pius X in a letter to the editor (compare, "Die Tagespost" from June, 6 2009) brought the subject matter to the point. While, for instance, according to H. Klueting ('Tagespost' from May 5, 2009 page 18) the teaching of the Second Vatican Council on 'Freedom from coercion" is reduced and falsely accorded an unbroken continuity, Father Gaudron put his finger on the decisive point:
The disagreement does not come from the question of repudiation of coercion - here is complete agreement -, rather, 'if and how far one may limit the exercise of false beliefs and their publication', said Father Gaudron. It constintutes then in fact a break in continuity, or in the word of Benedict XVI.: Discontinuity.
"The website maintains, that this opinion "felicitously" distinguished from the editorial letter by Professor Nikolaus Lobkowicz, "Peter Gaudron and the whole Society of Pius X on the 9th of June proposes, not between the right to error and the limits of the rights of the State, to hold error, could not distinguish and with that only demonstrate their own ignorance of the subject."
Father Peter's answer on 'Tagespost' was not published:"The 'Tagespost' appears to be intent on following the course of the German Bishop's Conference, that there can be no dialogue with the Society of Pius X and that they should be refused where possibile from expressing their opinions."Rev Rhonheimer cites the Website: "any way you twist and turn, one can't get round therefore: It is precisely this teaching of the Second Vatican Council which has been condemned in the Encyclical 'Quanta Cura'."
The Website acknowledges, that Rev. Rhonheimer is also against the eminent Munich philosopher Robert Spaeman who in April in the 'Tagespost' had addressed attempts to reconcile the two, in the question of Religious Freedom to assert an unbroken continuity between the conciliar and post-conciliar teaching.
Really, Rev. Rhonheimer allows that he is not completely convinced of this position: "It is however contestable"
He turns himself on the earlier proposed attempts at reconciliation of the french Old Rite Benedictine, Father Basil Valuet, or the Jesuit, Fr. Bertrand de Margerie.Finally, he holds them for "hopless and factually amiss": "They employ confusion, while such pleasconceal the originality of the teaching of the Second Vatican Council. "
Fr. Rhonheimer also maintains, that Pope Benedict, who is informed of the Council's condemned alteration of the teaching and cites from his Christmas Speech to the Roman Curia of 22nd December 2005:
"The Second Vatican Council through the redefinition of the relationship between the Faith of the Church and certain fundamental elements of modern thought have newly considered or even corrected or even some of the past pronouncements."
Thus says the Pope himself, that the Church acccording the Second Vatican Council is different than before.
