Sandro Magister has a story about the genuine problems in the German Catholic Church. In the past I have tried to explain to friends about the problems with the ecclesiastical tax and excommunications in the German Church, but I have had clergy and laity tell me I must be wrong. So for those of you who do not know about this (and those of you who told me I had to be wrong) here is the link to Sandro Magister's article "Anything But An Example for the World: the German Church is a Black Hole" in which he covers the problems as well as Pope Benedict's sharp criticisms of the German Church.
Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us.
