Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich shakes hands with Pope Francis Nov. 17, 2022, in the Clementine Hall of the Apostolic Palace during the German bishops'The German bishops’ meeting with officials of the Roman Curia was not a “showdown,” but it did make clear the Vatican’s strong concerns about Germany’s Synodal Path, especially regarding its support for official ministries for women and for a change in church teaching about homosexuality, said the president of the bishops’ conference.
“We are Catholics, and we will remain Catholics, but we want to be Catholics in a different way,” Bishop Bätzing said. Claims that the German church is moving toward a schism “are said from outside and meant to intimidate us.” “He said he was very worried, very worried that the synod in Germany could be a forest fire that spreads everywhere,” the bishop said.
As for allowing the blessing of gay couples, the bishop said members of the Synodal Assembly are continuing their discussion. “But for me, as a bishop, these blessings for people who ask God’s blessing for their committed relationship, I would not take that away from them.” The recommendations in some approved texts can be adopted without approval from Rome, but others must be referred to the Vatican before implementation.
