W\u00e4hrend sich der Bischof von Liverpool, die Liverpooler Polizei und andere verantwortliche Leute mehr noch an dem „social media circus“ st\u00f6ren, den er verursacht hat – ja, hattet ihr jemals wirklich geglaubt, die Menschen weltweit hielten also einfach ihr Maul angesichts dieser buchst\u00e4blich zum Himmel schreienden Ungerechtigkeit, dieser Tyrannei der Herzlosigkeit und der Willk\u00fcr eines m\u00f6rderischen Systemkonglomerats von Medizinern, Juristen und britischer Regierung? Was h\u00e4tten all diese Jammerlappen, die so bek\u00fcmmert wegen der sozialen Medien sind, denn fr\u00fcher wohl gemacht, wenn das Volk mit Mistforken und Heugabeln anr\u00fcckte, um seiner Meinung Ausdruck zu verleihen? – hat Jean Pierre Casey, der Neffe des gro\u00dfen deutschen katholischen Philosophen und Hitlerfeindes Dietrich von Hildebrand, einen offenen Brief an die Bisch\u00f6fe von England und Wales geschrieben.
\nMan darf sich als deutsche Katholikin durchaus auch wundern dar\u00fcber, wo eigentlich die Stellungnahmen deutscher Bisch\u00f6fe abgeblieben sind in diesem Fall. Vielleicht waren aber die ideologisch motivierten Krokodilstr\u00e4nen schon anderweitig reserviert, n\u00e4mlich f\u00fcr die Opfer einer Kirchenvertretung, die es nicht weiter fragw\u00fcrdig findet, Frauen zu weihen oder Protestanten die Kommunion auszuteilen. <\/p>\n
Aber zur\u00fcck zum Brief von Casey. <\/p>\n
>> Whilst you may be tempted to characterise me and others who share my views as \u2018simpletons\u2019 whose intellectual faculties are insufficient to fully grasp the ethical and medical subtleties of the case, I will reply: I know tyranny when I see it. I know oppression when I see it. I know injustice when I see it. And so do many thousands of others across the world. If our Church leaders, meaning the collective you, remain silent in the face of such tyranny, oppression and injustice, then not only do they fail in their mission to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ, not only do they fail to publicly uphold the sanctity and dignity of all human life, not only do they fail to defend the rights of parents as the primary educators and as the sole legitimate custodians of their children \u2014 each one of these being individually considered a serious sin of omission \u2014 but they also become accomplices of, and indeed, active participants in, gravely evil acts.<\/p>\n
I regret to say that with the kind of leadership \u2014 or rather the complete absence of leadership our bishops are showing \u2014 in grave public cases where a powerful public witness in defense of life, the family and God-given parental rights is not only necessary but is indeed a moral obligation, it is no wonder the flock of practising Catholics is so rapidly dwindling. For who wants to follow such shepherds? For this to occur so soon after the Charlie Gard saga, and with an essentially identical outcome \u2014 namely, the complete lack of leadership, lack of conviction, and lack of courage we are seeing from our bishops, I am afraid to say I am ashamed to be an English Catholic.<<\n\nVon hier<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" W\u00e4hrend sich der Bischof von Liverpool, die Liverpooler Polizei und andere verantwortliche Leute mehr noch an dem „social media circus“ st\u00f6ren, den er verursacht hat – ja, hattet ihr jemals wirklich geglaubt, die Menschen weltweit hielten also einfach ihr Maul angesichts dieser buchst\u00e4blich zum Himmel schreienden Ungerechtigkeit, dieser Tyrannei der Herzlosigkeit und der Willk\u00fcr eines […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,196],"tags":[243,245,244],"class_list":["post-470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-allgemein","category-europa-wohin","tag-alfie-evans","tag-bischoefe","tag-kirche"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=470"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/470\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":472,"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/470\/revisions\/472"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.barbara-wenz.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
