Preparation for the Synod of Bishops: Warsaw church newspaper "Idziemy" writes, they should go to a meeting to bring the Polish Bishops' Conference President Gadecki "to convince him to take the position represented by Cardinal Marx."
Dachau (KAP / kath.net) The DBK-chairman Reinhard Cardinal Marx is said to have proposed at the beginning of May to the Polish bishops, who had come on the 70th anniversary of Dachau Liberation in Bavaria during the meal, to hold a meeting. This was reported by Würzburg Catholic newspaper "Die Tagespost", citing the US newspaper "National Catholic Register" and the Warsaw church newspaper "Idziemy". This meeting reportedly, according to Marx should have the objective "to work towards a consensus" regarding a common position at the Synod of Bishops in the autumn. The 14th Ordinary General Assembly of Bishops will be held from the 4th to the 25th of October at the Vatican on "The Vocation and Mission of the Family in the Church in the Modern World".
The proposal by Marx was, however, rejected by the Polish bishops. The Polish journal "Idziemy" writes in a comment, the President of the Polish Bishops' Conference and leader of the Polish synod delegation, Archbishop Stanislaw Gadecki, stand in the teaching on marriage "without a doubt" faithful to the teaching of St. John Paul II. But it they would, in Marx's proposed meeting, said Gadecki "to persuade him to take the position Cardinal Marx represents".
Update: the German Bishops' Conference is denying this, and only specifies that representatives are meeting to clarify the points at which they disagree. Weasels.

Please explain the "very likely" comment.
Is that sarcasm or do you think it is very likely that the Polish will change their mind?
In light of denials, weaseling or downplaying on the part of both conferences, it's still very likely that Marx's proposal to meet were rejected.
None of this would have been possible if we didn't have Pope Francis, the biggest weasel of them all.
Karl was enough to for us to deal with, Kardinal. Please don't worry about us, dziekuje.
When Germans looks east, it is never a good sign.
You'll fit in just fine at Econe.
Thank you! I consider that a compliment ! : )
True story.
