The Crisis Afflicting the German Church(es)
The Decline of the Catholic Church in Germany and the reasons for it by Dr. Michael Schneider-Flagmeyer
The controversy surrounding the gender flyer of the German Bishops Conference is symptomatic of the situation of the Catholic Church in Germany.
How did the Protestant Reformation, the unification of Germany, and the centralization of the Latin Church contribute to the current crisis? Or is it mainly a problem of neo-modernism taking over the institutions of higher learning in the 20th century?

"Finally, Augustine Casiday, author of the invaluable landmark work Reconstructing the Theology of Evagrius Ponticus: Beyond Heresy (whom I interviewed about this very book here) has a fascinating and learned essay treating the uses and abuses of Evagrius' famous definition of theology and a theologian from his treatise On Prayer. This maxim, which I have myself quoted regularly, and which seems to be a staple of contemporary Eastern spiritual and apologetical literature, is often used as little more than a thinly disguised sneer at intellectual work--as a cloak for anti-intellectual obscurantism in other words. Casiday's treatment of what Evagrius really meant is important and not to be missed."

We have heard a lot about (the new) mercy during the past months, and with respect to the (sometimes strange and surprising) topics discussed at the Extraordinary Synod on the Family.

The Catholic Thing: The End(s) of Marriage Since Vatican II by Howard Kainz
"But as I mentioned in a previous column, the “demotion” of “primary end” and the subsequent emphasis on “unitive” aspects of marriage, has even led some priests to consecrate intentionally childless marriages. More recently, this de-emphasis on procreation in favor of “the unitive significance” has certainly facilitated the slide towards obviously non-procreative “marriage” between homosexuals."
Are Josephite marriages "intentionally childless marriages"?
