Austria's Bishops to Discuss 'Crisis' over Resistance to Bishop's Appointment Catholic Culture February 13, 2009 http://www.catholicculture.org/news/headlines/index.cfm?storyid=1980 Acknowledging a "crisis" for Catholicism in their country, Austria's Catholic bishops will meet in Vienna on Monday to discuss the popular opposition to the Pope's selection of a conservative priest, Father Gerhard Maria Wagner, to become an auxiliary bishop of the Linz diocese. Some priests have violently objected to the appointment, pointing to Father Wagner's view that a decline in morality amounts to "spiritual pollution" of society. |
