Fault lines in German Catholicism II

Catholic reform groups support Zollitsch

The remarks of the new Chairman of the German Bishops' Conference, Robert Zollitsch, on celibacy have attracted support from Catholic reform groups. Zollitsch is not alone among the 70 bishops in Germany, said the spokesman for the “Popular Church Movement” Christian Weisner to the "Stuttgarter Nachrichten." "It would be fantastic if other bishops, who thought the same way, have the courage to speak out." Zollitsch has raised this as one of the most pressing problems of the church at the beginning of his term. "Now we need the solidarity of the other bishops," Weisner said. "that speak from personal experience and from responsibility for the parishes." Priests need desperately need this , who have been in secret relationships.
