In this essay, he claims that he could no longer handle the "homophobia". In reality, he was fired from his position and would presumably have continued his double life of fancy meals and expensive wines in ancient castles.
Now that he no longer has his magazine, "Theologisches", he's going to write a book. Here's the fawning interview he did for church-hate magazine 'Spiegel.'
SPIEGEL: ... after you and your career had profited for a long time from contact with these right-wing circles.
Berger: Ever since Pope Benedict XVI, at the latest, you have to be anti-modern to have a career in the Catholic Church. I criticized the relatively progressive theology and left-wing church policy of Karl Rahner. That is how people noticed me. Because I was an expert on the medieval thinker Thomas Aquinas, I was invited by almost all right-wing conservative groups to give lectures. I was in touch with the Sedevacantists, the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, the Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property, Una Voce, Opus Dei and the Servants of Jesus and Mary.
