The German Catholic Church’s two-year Synodal Path, which began Sunday, must be about evangelization rather than “political or sociological process” or driven by a mainstream media ignorant of the Church, a German bishop has cautioned.
Lionel: Vatican Council II and all magisterial documents must be interpreted with Feeneyism, a rational approach in philosophy and theology. This would take the Church back to the old ecclesiology, with traditional mission and salvation doctrines.
When Vatican Council II is interpreted with Cushingism, an irrational approach in philosophy and theology, which is common, there is a rupture with the past theology and doctrines on mission and salvation.

Bishop Rudolf Voderholzer of Regensburg also said claims that “apocalyptic impulses” mean the Synodal Path is a kind of “last chance” for the Church to reform herself are “not helpful” but rather a form of “attempted coercion.”
Lionel. The Synodal Path depends upon the irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II. So it creates a rupture with traditional theology, ecclesiology, ecumenism,evangelisation etc.

“We will not be intimidated by this!” Bishop Voderholzer told faithful at an investiture of a new cathedral capitular, Professor Josel Kreiml, in Regensburg cathedral Nov. 30.
The Synodal Path, which began on the first day of Advent with informal talks, is aimed at discussing “key issues” arising from the clerical sex-abuse crisis, in particular the Catholic Church’s perennial teaching on priestly celibacy, human sexuality and the role of women in the Church.
Lionel: The Church's perennial teaching on salvation has been rejected by the German bishops, including the bishop of Regensburg and Pope Benedict.

But the meeting, whose first general assembly will be held on Jan. 30, has already attracted controversy, with critics concerned it will result in proposals that will undermine the Church’s teaching and possibly lead the German Church into schism.
Lionel: The German bishops are already in schism with the past popes on extra ecclesiam nulla salus, the past ecclesiology and an ecumenism of return. Since they interpret Vatican Council II with a false premise.It is only with the use of this false premise that there can be a new Synodal Path.
If Catholics in general in Germany, the lay people, are taught on how they can interpret the Council and other magisterial documents, in harmony with the past ecclesiology in Germany, this will be a big change in the  Church in the country.

Drawing on Pope Francis’ June 29 letter to the German faithful, Bishop Voderholzer said the Pope has stressed the importance of evangelization in the Synodal Path which, the bishop believes, “must be the guiding criterion of all our deliberations.”
“I myself was received by Pope Francis in private audience at the end of August, and he also told me once again with urgent words: ‘The essence of the Church is evangelization,’” he said.
Lionel: Yes but it is a proclamation of Jesus without the necessity of being a member of the Catholic Church for salvation.It is not a proclamation on exclusive salvation in the Catholic Church.It is not a support for the past ecclesiology and an ecumenism of return, upon which was based the proclamation of the Social Reign of Christ the King in politics and national laws.

The Synodal Path must therefore be a “spiritual process, a common listening to the Gospel,” the bishop insisted, and “under no circumstances” be a “political or sociological process” driven by a “mainstream media that usually doesn’t understand anything about the nature of the Church.”
For this reason, he said he was “very saddened” that the statutes for the Synodal Path failed to “take into account the main concern of the Holy Father” by establishing a separate forum dedicated to the “New Evangelization.”
Bishop Voderholzer, who has threatened to withdraw from the two-year process if unity and evangelization are not given priority, said that with Prof. Kreiml assisting him on the synodal process, he wishes to bring the diocese into the Synodal Path “with full force” and to help promote the “unity of the Church” which the “sensus ecclesiae (sense of the Church) values.”
Kreiml, he said, is an “outstanding expert” on Joseph Ratzinger’s theology who understands the Church “with all her traditions, not as a corporation or a political party, but as a community of prayer,” and not as “managers but priests who live from daily common prayer and celebration of the Eucharist.”
Lionel: Cardinal Ratzinger's theology is the cause of the hermeneutic of rupture with Tradition.The interpretation of Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church is heretical and it is now common throughout the Church. He did not correct Pope Paul VI when he interpreted Vatican Council II with Cushingism instead of Feeneyism.Instead he produced Redemptoris Missio and Dominus Iesus, based upon the irrational philosophy and theology and then projected it as the Deposit of the Faith.The Bishop of Regensburg could choose to interpret Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church with Feeneyism. Then the others could follow.-Lionel Andrades
