You know maybe this is a deadly blow to Catholic Church because Germany is perhaps the richest "Catholic country" and I think it's safe to say that Germany is a cash cow to the Vatican, considering that Catholic Germans must pay 10% out of their monthly pay and if something was there to disrupt that it seems Vatican would be in a serious doo-doo.
But, of course, it may not disrupt the believing Germans at all and maybe Vatican has some other valuable cash sources.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
