Mannheim (kath.net / CBA / red) The outgoing chairman of the German Bishops' Conference, Archbishop Robert Zollitsch, regrets overlooking the Limburg Bishop Franz-Peter Tebartz van Elst, "that this particular case has become a central theme and overshadowed the really important questions. " In an interview with the "Mannheimer Morgen" (Thursday) Zollitsch said, the test report issued by the Episcopal Conference was, "a good foundation, so that the Congregation for Bishops may decide fairly in agreement with the Pope." That Zollitsch could as he says "discuss in Rome in detail with the Congregation."
Zollitsch criticized the German Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller. Accoding to the Assessment, The Report Showed no Wrongdoing by Tebartz van Elst. Zollitsch expressed this: "It amazes me that the old saying of Wittgenstein, 'Whereof one can not speak, thereof one should remain silent' is ignored." On the question of the influence he had on the decision on Tebartz, Zollitsch said: "The Holy Father knows my opinion. I have full confidence in him that he will make the right decision. "Zollitsch had handed over the report on Carnival Monday on the controversial construction projects in the diocese of Limburg to the Prefect of the Congregation of Bishops in the Vatican, Cardinal Marc Ouellet.
The Emeritus Archbishop of Freiburg also commented to another question, in which he has fallen out with Prefect Müller. Asked about the "contradiction" and others of the Curial Cardinal on the admission of married divorcees to the Sacraments, Zollitsch said:" The manual of our pastoral ministry is trying to rewrite the practice in most German dioceses in Austria and Alsace. It's also about how we look into each individual case according to how we can serve the whole community. Cardinal Kasper thinks similarly in this direction and represents the theological perspectives. For that I am grateful to him." Zollitsch concluded with the comment: "I was told Francis had praised Cardinal Kasper's presentation highly. "

Full communion w/the Lutherans will certainly be easier once 2nd marriages and divorce are "pastorally" permitted. Surprised no-one in blogosphere has picked up on this (especially due to the Kaspar connection). Vatican II plan: destroy the mass, destroy the priesthood (and ordain thousands of married (permanent) deacons and commission tens of thousands of female "extraordinary" ministers of the Eucharist who believe they are HELPING priests by taking communion to the sick and elderly (where volunteers can't feed these people lest the nursing home be sued for "choking" them to death and now lest the nursing home not let them die via neglect), destroy sexual morality and wow! all "Christians" can become one!
