Hey, nothing like a cardinal stoking xenophobia and bigotry.

Cardinal Müller claims politicians ‘live in fear' of Muslims

One of the Church's leading conservative cardinals has claimed that politicians in European countries like Germany “live in fear" of Muslims, as he issued a stark warning about the future of Christianity on the continent.

"Muslims dominate public life, in part because politicians live in fear of them," the cardinal said, speaking about the situation in Germany. As a result, he said, Germany "already is, in many ways" a Muslim country.

He noted that in his native Mainz, a city which was 70 per cent Catholic half a century ago, the figure had fallen to 27 per cent, with migration and secularisation eroding Catholic identity.

Across Germany, he added, Muslim migrants were shaping public culture while Christians were reluctant even to hold Eucharistic processions.

He described "wokeism" as a continuation of Marxist thought that is hostile to family, identity and religion, and accused its proponents of "instrumentalising" Islam to undermine Christian culture.

"In England, for example, wokeism in its initial phase uses Islamism as a tool to weaken Christian culture and tradition," the cardinal said.

"Currently, in tragic cases – such as when a white girl is violated by several Muslim men – the girl is more likely to go to jail than the perpetrators. I hope that we will see meaningful change in England with the next elections."

Cardinal Müller also turned his attention to recent controversies in Rome, condemning the controversial LGBT Jubilee pilgrimage that saw participants gather at the Church of the Gesù and at St Peter’s Basilica. He described the event as a desecration of sacred spaces and a distortion of Catholic teaching, accusing organisers of exploiting religious symbols for political purposes.
