The secretariat of the German Bishops' Conference told DW.com (19 February) that 650 Catholic churches across the country have "ceased to be used for worship" since 2005.
He spoke of a "veritable wave of secularisation" [read: self-made secularisation]. An average of 28 Novus Ordo churches have been closed every year in Germany since 2019.
By 2023, every second German will no longer belong to one of the two main Christian churches.
Church buildings are being demolished to make way for housing estates or nursing homes, or converted into galleries, climbing walls, pubs or funeral parlours.
This trend is not surprising, as the German dioceses have no more to offer than any other decadent left-wing party.
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
