Germany’s Catholic bishops are officially launching their first commission for “queer” pastoral care. Auxiliary Bishop Ludger Schepers of the troubled Essen diocese‚ the commission’s inaugural chief‚ is already urging a change in the Church’s teachings on homosexuality. “In the coming months‚ there will certainly be a lot of things that can be openly discussed‚” Schepers said in a radio interview last week. The bishop claimed that the Church has long “suppressed” discussion of homosexuality‚ but that he sees Pope Francis’ recent promulgation of Fiducia Supplicans‚ which allows an ambiguous form of “blessing” for same-sex couples‚ as “an opening” for broader discussion of the Church’s age-old position on homosexuality. RELATED: Vatican Offers Blessings to Same-Sex Couples. It’s Not What You Think. Last month‚ the German Bishops’ Conference named Schepers its representative for “queer” pastoral care‚ a position that had previously only existed at the diocesan level but now carries the full force and endorsement of the Bishops’ Conference. Schepers himself noted in an interview last year that LGBTQ pastoral groups have sprung up among the German Church with surprising speed over the past five years. “There are [now] commissions for queer pastoral care in more than 20 dioceses‚” he bragged. “So a lot has happened that we can be proud of.” Like many LGBTQ advocates within the ranks of the Catholic clergy‚ Schepers has had to contend with the Church’s perennial moral teachings on sex and marriage‚ often reinterpreting clearly promulgated moral standards and even outright rejecting them. For example‚ Schepers has argued that the Church must consider (or‚ rather‚ reconsider) its guidelines for sexual activity outside the context of sacramental marriage. “It can’t just be about sexuality in marriage[;] it has to be about sexuality in the relationship‚” the bishop quipped. “What matters in a relationship is honesty‚ authenticity and mutual respect.” Unfortunately for Schepers‚ the Catholic Church and its greatest thinkers and defenders have already considered and addressed such arguments. The Church holds that human beings are created with a purpose — chiefly‚ to know‚ love‚ and serve God and to be united with Him in Heaven for all eternity — and that the actions we take throughout the course of our lives either help or hinder that purpose. (READ MORE from S.A. McCarthy: Revisiting a Catastrophe: A Cardinal’s Blueprint for the Next Pope) Sexuality‚ too‚ was designed with a purpose — chiefly‚ procreation‚ which homosexual sexual activity biologically and incontrovertibly precludes; other goods‚ such as intimacy and pleasure‚ are secondary in the eyes of the Church and are‚ in fact‚ only good when serving that chief and primary purpose of procreation. This is why the Church condemns such acts as masturbation‚ which also precludes procreation‚ as disordered acts‚ because they attempt to rearrange the order instituted by God‚ valuing sexual pleasure above the generation of new life. The Church also clarifies that sex is only permitted within the context of marriage. The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains: “By its very nature conjugal love requires the inviolable fidelity of the spouses. This is the consequence of the gift of themselves which they make to each other” (CCC 1646). Sexual activity outside of marriage is spiritual and even physical robbery: It presumes to take for oneself the gift of the other without first pledging oneself to the other in the indissoluble‚ covenantal sacrament of marriage. Again‚ the Catechism explains‚ “Love seeks to be definitive; it cannot be an arrangement ‘until further notice’” (CCC 1646). Same-sex couples cannot enter into the sacrament of marriage‚ since the very nature of such a relationship contradicts God’s design for marriage‚ the family‚ and sex itself. “Sexuality affects all aspects of the human person in the unity of his body and soul‚” the Catechism explains. “It especially concerns affectivity‚ the capacity to love and to procreate‚ and in a more general way the aptitude for forming bonds of communion with others.… Physical‚ moral‚ and spiritual difference and complementarity are oriented toward the goods of marriage and the flourishing of family life” (CCC 2332–2333). God created both man and woman “in His own image” (Genesis 1:27)‚ which one might say makes sex a mode of “completing” the imago Dei‚ uniting both the masculine and the feminine in a mirror image of God‚ who is‚ as C.S. Lewis so simply and wisely put it‚ “Love Himself.” Two men cannot “complete” the imago Dei in such a way‚ nor can two women. The Catechism declares homosexuality to be “intrinsically disordered” and “contrary to the natural law” (CCC 2357). As the reference to the natural law indicates‚ homosexuality is disordered because it “close[s] the sexual act to the gift of life‚” but also because it does “not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity” (CCC 2357). That is to say‚ God made man to be given‚ body and soul‚ to woman‚ and woman to be given‚ body and soul‚ to man; He did not make man to be given‚ body and soul‚ to man‚ nor woman to be given‚ body and soul‚ to woman. Sexuality‚ the Catechism further explains‚ “is not something simply biological‚ but concerns the innermost being of the human person as such” (CCC 2361). This line is crucial to understanding the errors of redefining or reshaping the Church’s teachings on sexuality. In his commentary on Corinthians‚ St. Thomas Aquinas added a further degree of clarity when he wrote‚ “Anima mea non est ego” — “My soul is not me.” In his Summa Theologiae‚ the great philosopher built on this fundamental truth when he explained that humans are neither bodies that have souls nor souls that have bodies; we are‚ instead‚ essentially body-soul composites. That is‚ the body is just as essential to being human as the soul is; the unity of the two is our essence. Lewis echoes and simplifies this truth in The Screwtape Letters‚ when the senior demon writes to his inept nephew‚ “[F]or [humans] constantly forget‚ what you must always remember‚ that they are animals and that whatever their bodies do affects their souls.” Perhaps nowhere is this immutable maxim more gravely and solemnly felt than in the realm of sexuality. To engage in homosexual acts — or‚ on an even more hubristic plane‚ in transgenderism‚ with its horrific drug regimens and brutal surgeries-cum-mutilations — is in truth to deny the essential relationship between body and soul‚ to declare either that what the body does doesn’t affect the soul or that the soul has no relation whatsoever to the body or is‚ perhaps‚ only part of the body. The Catechism declares that those who do have homosexual inclinations “must be accepted with respect‚ compassion‚ and sensitivity.… These persons are called to fulfill God’s will in their lives and‚ if they are Christians‚ to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord’s Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition” (CCC 2358). To that end‚ an initiative to offer pastoral care and counsel to those who identify as LGBTQ sounds like a good idea. Such an effort may encourage and equip those struggling with disordered desires to live chastely‚ to seek Christ’s presence in their pain‚ to master their own passions‚ and to offer them as a sacrifice to Christ crucified. Especially in an age steeped in degeneracy and sexual sin‚ such a ministry indeed seems necessary. Sadly‚ it looks as though Germany’s bishops have chosen to ignore the wise words of Aquinas and even the declarations of the Catechism. The soul is to be ignored and left to wallow in confusion‚ misery‚ hunger‚ and unsatisfactory self-worship. The body is to be encouraged to run rampant — and if it happens to trample 2‚000 years of Catholic wisdom and divine instruction‚ so be it. Through their heterodox devotion to “queer” and LGBTQ initiatives‚ the German bishops have demonstrated once again that they worship at the altar of the zeitgeist: No Communion is chalice is offered‚ but souls are sacrificed.

When Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s Civic Coalition conducted its election campaign last year‚ it promoted the slogan of “Smiling Poland‚” with corresponding brand accents of smiles and hearts. It implied that Poland had receded into darkness under the conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party‚ which governed the country from 2015 to 2023. Tusk and his coalition partners promised progress and a healthy dose of “rule of law.” Instead‚ they have returned the country to an earlier era‚ as seemingly not a week passes without a thuggish confrontation.  READ MORE on Poland: Polish Prime Minister Pushes Unconstitutional Abortion Bill Last Wednesday marked the most recent round of farmer protests‚ which have occurred across the continent and become particularly visible in Poland‚ where the combination of unregulated Ukrainian agricultural imports and EU Green Deal provisions are particularly onerous. Foresters‚ truckers‚ miners‚ and hunters joined Wednesday’s protests‚ which had the official support of the country’s largest labor union. In a flashback to the Solidarity protests of the 1980s‚ riot police met the protesters with truncheons‚ tear gas‚ and water cannons. Police Brutality in Poland “ZOMO” is a word on Polish lips again. The Motorized Reserves of the Citizens’ Militia (abbreviated ZOMO) gained notoriety for violently subduing protests during the communist era‚ forming the backdrop of key events from the Solidarity era. Prosecuting its most criminal elements has been an aspect of post-communist Poland confronting its past.  The name on police uniforms changed — Milicja gave way to Policja (the connotation passes effectively into English)‚ but the willingness to employ police brutality demonstrably still exists in Poland.  One widely circulated video shows riot police tackling and arresting a man carrying a Polish flag. EU parliamentarian Dominik TarczyÅ„ski flatly noted the symbolism: “The flag is on the ground‚” he posted on X. In other videos‚ police charge a crowd while discharging tear gas. One shows an officer throwing what appears to be a stone into a crowd of protesters. Parliamentarian SÅ‚awomir Mentzen has claimed that police gassed and attacked a crowd assembled in front of the parliament building‚ and that he sustained injuries that required medical attention. Flaga na ziemi… pic.twitter.com/oUEB8gHen7 — Dominik TarczyÅ„ski MEP (@D_Tarczynski) March 6‚ 2024 Dr. MichaÅ‚ SopiÅ„ski‚ rector and assistant professor at the Institute of Justice in Warsaw‚ wrote an appeal to government officials in which he highlighted the “gross excess of authority by police officers” and “possible abuses in the use of direct coercive measures.”  Government and opposition figures have traded barbs over who provoked whom‚ both claiming the other side employed provocateurs. Numbers of protesters and injuries are unclear (though the previous week’s smaller protest drew an estimated 10‚000 demonstrators). This much‚ however‚ is certain: Tusk’s government has minted its latest public outrage.  Tusk’s Leftist Regime and the Conversative Problem In December‚ one week after taking power‚ the new government raided the public television headquarters. In January‚ it took political prisoners in the Presidential Palace. Western journalists frequently describe the ruling coalition as moderate and politically diverse‚ but it has forced a leftist wish list onto the political agenda and assumed a comparably hardnosed stance on social issues. Abortion‚ “hate-speech” laws‚ and so-called transgender soldiers are reportedly in the works. Illegal migrants and migration activists have been invited to parliament. Education reform will restrict Polish history‚ literature‚ and religion. Tusk’s term has‚ so far‚ been a concoction of flagrant rule-of-law abuses and leftist social engineering. Ironically‚ Tusk started his political career as a Solidarity activist. He now shares a government with descendants of the communist-era Polish United Workers’ Party and oversees police tactics he once would have reviled. He should resign. Yet‚ that alone won’t restore sanity.  Last October’s elections can’t really be interpreted as a mandate for anything‚ but they certainly were a mandate against something: PiS. Recent polls suggest that this unpopularity has not improved‚ despite the new government’s excesses‚ and might even have worsened. JarosÅ‚aw KaczyÅ„ski‚ the unpopular PiS leader and former prime minister‚ announced he would continue his leadership‚ a decision that figures to handicap his party’s short-term (if not long-term) chances. Confederation‚ the only other meaningful force on the right‚ failed to gain enough votes to be eligible for coalition talks.  Nor can the recent farmer protests be neatly tied to the right. Journalist Piotr Semka notes that “PiS politicians are not always welcomed with open arms” at the protests. This stems from the perception that PiS meekly accepted the EU’s Green Deal provisions and failed to address the Ukrainian imports until close to the elections. Furthermore‚ adds Semka‚ “any government‚ not just Tusk’s crew‚ would struggle to meet some of the [farmers’] demands.”  Among the components of the ruling government is the Third Way coalition‚ which includes an agrarian party. In key conservative constituencies of Poland’s rural East‚ 10 percent or more of 2019 PiS voters abandoned the party‚ with many opting for the Third Way. Although marketed as a legitimate option for conservative voters‚ the Third Way has offered little resistance to the leftist blitz. Recently‚ most of its MPs agreed to toe the line on abortion legislation.  Polish conservatives find themselves in an unenviable position. Upcoming local and EU elections‚ as well as next year’s critical presidential election‚ present some constructive political aims‚ but they offer limited chances to curb the parliamentary onslaught. KaczyÅ„ski and other PiS leaders speak frequently of a government collapse‚ an event that would trigger new elections. If recent polls are accurate‚ this doesn’t figure to improve the parliamentary deficit.  Poles unsatisfied with the current government might need to endure some lean years and express themselves through extra-legislative demonstrations like the recent protests. Smiling Poland — if such an idea has any substance — clearly isn’t forthcoming. Michael O’Shea is a visiting fellow at the Danube Institute. He is an alumnus of the Budapest Fellowship Program‚ sponsored by the Hungary Foundation and the Mathias Corvinus Collegium.
