Comments to the “Memorandum Church 2011: A necessary departure” “The Church needs also married priests”. This statement from the “Memorandum Church 2011: A necessary awakening” (04.02.2011), signed by more than 180 so-called “Catholic theologians”, resulted in numerous headlines as: “Called for abolition of celibacy”. First to the Catholic justification for celibacy: the “virginity Christ arose from his destiny as Savior and sacrifice… If the life of the Lord at first focused on the cross, his perpetual virginity so to speak was the visible expression of this sacrifice. This visible role model who daily bloodless may renew this sacrifice of the cross in the conversion of words to imitate also on his body”(W.
(ed.) encyclopedia of Catholic life, Freiburg 1952, 573f). Celibacy is the innermost relating to the Christian idea of the victim. But this memorandum now affects only the formation of the so-called “Second Vatican Council” (V2). In the V2 group, Christ’s sacrifice has however no place. The V2 group is obviously also a fun company, but just insofar as its orientation is deliberately and specifically anti-Christian: the victim thought to be wiped out from the consciousness of the people, and for this purpose, because the human being as the creature tends now even also to the victim for his creator, the V2 group uses also a falsified, misleading concept of victims.
That daily cross wearing basically belongs to the imitation of Christ (see LK 9.23). Depending on the particular vocation of the renunciation of marriage may be required (see Mt 19,12). Some victims are generally prescribed, such as fasting (maximum saturation and two small bolstering) and abstinence (abandonment of meat) on certain days. (See a) Catholic Church and b) V2 group: fasting: a) total lent (except Sundays), if necessary also on Ember days, as well as certain vigils; b) Ash Wednesday and good Friday (possibly indeterminate) “fast”, otherwise no Restrictions in the whole of lent, at best ridiculous and/or mocking “alternatives” such as “Smoke fasting”, “Car fast”, “SMS fasting” or similar abstinence: a) every Friday (except on the church holidays), possibly also on Ember days.
