Cardinal calls for review of the decision to lift excommunications

Catholic Church Conservation, Thursday, February 05, 2009


The Vatican and the Nazi scandal — a wave of indignation runs through Germany!

Bild.de spoke with the Berlin Archbishop Cardinal George Sterzinsky.

Bild.de — Cardinal, the Pope is currently in the sharp criticism — is this justified?

Cardinal Sterzinsky — In any case, it is understandable. The decision from Rome, to lift the excommunication of the four bishops of the SSPX is for the vast majority of people incomprehensible and appalling.

— What should happen now?

— At the very least now, that it will immediately be said, that this decision must be reviewed. According to my perception, a different result would be expected to come out.

— Do you think it is possible that the Vatican was not informed about the confused Williamson theses?

— No. In Rome you cannot pretend that you could not know. I am not among those who had much particular interest in the four bishops. But that was familiar to me because it has been said again and again.

— Would you recommend the Pope to offer an apology?

— A clarification would be helpful.
