Cardinal Hollerich on German “Synodal Way”

Cardinal Hollerich’s position on the Synodal Way appears to have evolved, moving from “great respect” for the process to describing it as “confrontational” and not a “model” for the proceedings of the world synod, since “we are more for harmony.” However, he notably has not criticized its content, only its procedure; it seemed to Hollerich that the Germans had delivered the right results but did so too early and with a process that was too blatant.
