Conservative Archibishop for Berlin

Left to Right: +Imkamp, Gloria Taxis u. Thurn, Msgr. Georg Gänswein

Editor: +Impkamp is a conservative choice. Usually, if the local media doesn't like someone or something in Germany, it's a good thing. They're downplaying +Imkamp.

Rome Cements the Decline

Germany: In Berlin the rumors are increasingly circulating that the Pilgrimage director of Maria Vesperbild, Prelate Wilhelm Imkamp, will be the new Bishop of Berlin. The 'Berliner Zeitung' said this on Saturday. The Old Liberals are chalking this up to his "plain text Catholicism", explained the paper: It serves "as a conservative concept of the enemy for Old Liberal functionaries". At the same time the paper reported that the new Archbishop "was a long decided thing": "Also because of the upcoming Pope visit one wanted to be united -- like perhaps Archbishop Matthias Heinrich (56)". For one church expert, a man of the stature of Prelate Imkamp is "not opportune. Still not" -- says the 'Berliner Zeitung'.
