Juni 2004, Fest des heiligen Benno, unseres Diözesanpatrons In diesem Jahr wäre Bischof Otto Spülbeck 100 Jahre alt geworden. Sein Episkopat ist vor allem verbunden mit dem II. Vatikanischen Konzil und der Zweiten Diözesansynode für unser Bistum Dresden- Meißen, die er ab 1966 weitgehend durchgeführt hat. Sein Nachfolger Bischof Gerhard Schaffran hat die Synode weiter- geführt und in die nachfolgende Pastoralsynode der Bistümer und Jurisdiktionsbezirke der katholischen Kirche in der DDR überführt. Als Kaplan an der damaligen Propsteikirche in Dresden, der heutigen Kathedrale des Bistums Dresden-Meißen und als Pfarrer in Freiberg habe ich als Mitglied der 1966 in Vorbereitung der Synode errichteten Fachkommission III – Verkündigung – und als Synodale die Diözesan- synode miterlebt und dabei mitgearbeitet. Die Arbeit war beseelt von einer vorwärtsdrängenden Kraft. Es galt, die Ergebnisse des II. Vati- kanischen Konzils für unser Bistum umzusetzen und fruchtbar zu machen. Inzwischen sind über drei Jahrzehnte vergangen. Die Situation des Landes und unseres Bistums hat sich grundlegend verändert. Den- noch ist es gut, dass die Zweite Diözesansynode mit ihrer Arbeit und ihren Ergebnissen in dieser Veröffentlichung vorgestellt wird und dem heutigen Leser zeigt, wie Bischof, Priester und Laien in jahrelan- 9 Vorwort Bischof Reinelt gem Mühen versucht haben, das bewährte Alte und das notwendige Neue zu verbinden für die Erfüllung des Heilsauftrages in unserem Bistum Dresden-Meißen. Mein Dank gilt den Herausgebern und Autoren dieser Veröffent- lichung. Bischof von Dresden-Meißen 10 Einführung Mehr als 30 Jahre sind seit der Meißner Diözesansynode vergangen. Von 1969 bis 1971 traten in der Dresdener Hofkirche Kleriker und Laien des Bistums Meißen zu insgesamt vier Arbeitssitzungen zusam- men. Durch Dispens von den damaligen Vorschriften des Kirchen- rechts hatte Papst Paul VI. die Beteiligung von Laien als Synodalen ermöglicht. Auf diese Weise wurde bereits ein wichtiges Anliegen des Konzils verwirklicht, die verantwortliche Mitarbeit der Laien an der Verwirklichung der Beschlüsse des Zweiten Vatikanischen Konzils in der Ortskirche. Nach der dritten Arbeitssitzung, mitten in der Arbeit der Syno- de, verstarb im Juni 1970 deren Initiator, Bischof Dr. Otto Spülbeck, der mit großem Engagement seit 1966 die Vorbereitungen der Diö- zesansynode vorangetrieben hatte. Sein Nachfolger, Bischof Gerhard Schaff ran, beendete im Herbst 1971 mit der vierten Arbeitssitzung die Sy node.1 Die einzelnen Synodaldekrete wurden zusammen mit den Relationes in einem Abzugsverfahren vervielfältigt sowie im sel- ben Verfahren in einer kleinen Stückzahl eine Zusammenfassung der Sy nodenergebnisse erstellt.2 Bereits im Dezember 1970 kam es zu einer nicht von der Synode veranlassten Veröffentlichung des Syno- daldekrets I „Ziele und Aufgaben der Erneuerung des Bistums Meißen nach dem II. Vatikanischen Konzil“ in der in Freiburg erscheinenden Zeitschrift „Herderkorrespondenz“.3 Im Jahre 1994 wurde das Syno- daldekret I in zwei Buchpublikationen herausgegeben.4 1 Mit Rücksicht auf die geplante Pastoralsynode der Jurisdiktionsbezirke der katholischen Kirche in der DDR (1973 bis 1975) zögerte Bischof Gerhard Schaffran, neben den Synodaldekreten I, II und VI weitere Dekrete in Kraft zu setzen – diese wurden lediglich veröffentlicht. Aus diesem Grund verzichtete Bischof Schaffran auch auf die Herausgabe der Ergebnisse der Synode in Buchform. 2 Vgl. S. 346 Literatur zur Synode des Bistums Meißen: Dokumente. 3 Vgl. S. 347 Literatur zur Synode des Bistums Meißen: Synodaldekret I. 4 Vgl. S. 347 Literatur zur Synode des Bistums Meißen: PILVOUSEK S. 184–209 sowie RICHTER S. 147–167. 11 Einführung Am 27. und 28. Oktober 2000 befasste sich eine Tagung mit der Meißner Diözesansynode im Bischof-Benno-Haus Schmochtitz in Bau- tzen, der Bildungsstätte des Bistums Dresden-Meißen. Nicht weni- ge der Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer gehörten als Synodalen zu deren Akteuren. Das Thema lautete: „Zur politischen Bedeutung der Meißner Diözesansynode 1969 bis 1971“. Dabei wurde u. a. festge- stellt, dass die Synode nicht nur ein kirchliches Ereignis war, sondern auch eine „Grundschule der Demokratie“ im Kontext eines totalitären Staates. Am Ende der Tagung kam man überein, an Bischof Joachim Reinelt mit der Bitte heranzutreten, jetzt die Ergebnisse der Synode als gedruckte Texte zu veröffentlichen. Der Bischof nahm das Anlie- gen auf und befürwortete die Aufarbeitung der Synode im Sinne einer wissenschaftlichen Dokumentation. Daraufhin wurde eine Arbeits- gruppe eingesetzt, die unter Leitung von Prälat Dieter Grande und der Mitarbeit von Prälat Günter Hanisch, Dr. Siegfried Seifert sowie Dr. Peter-Paul Straube tätig wurde. Die vorliegende Publikation versteht sich als Dokumentation der Ergebnisse der Meißner Diözesansynode 1969 bis 1971. Dazu kom- men Gutachten zu einzelnen Synodaldekreten sowie einführende Bei- träge.

  • Full Text and Explanatory Notes of Cardinals' Questions on 'Amoris Laetitia'
    Full Text and Explanatory Notes of Cardinals’ Questions on ‘Amoris Laetitia’ The full documentation relating to the cardinals’ initiative, entitled ‘Seeking Clarity: A Plea to Untie the Knots in Amoris Laetitia.’ Four cardinals have turned to what they call an “age-old” process of posing a series of questions to Pope Francis in the hope that his clarification will help clear up “grave disorientation and great confusion” caused by key parts of his summary document on the synod on the family, Amoris Laetitia. The cardinals — Carlo Caffarra, archbishop emeritus of Bologna; Raymond Burke, patron of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta; Walter Brandmüller, president emeritus of the Pontifical Committee for Historical Sciences; and Joachim Meisner, archbishop emeritus of Cologne — sent five questions, called dubia (Latin for “doubts”), to the Holy Father and Cardinal Gerhard Müller, prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, on Sept. 19, along with an accompanying letter. Each of the dubia is aimed at eliciting from the Apostolic See clarification on key parts of the document, most notably whether it is admissible to allow any remarried divorcees without an annulment Holy Communion. Due to varying interpretations of this and other parts of the apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia (The Joy of Love), some of which appear to contradict previous papal teachings (those of Pope St. John Paul II in particular), the cardinals said they chose to highlight those points in “charity and justice,” for the sake of Church unity. Consistent with his tendency of so far not responding to concerns about the apostolic exhortation, the Holy Father also did not reply to their request, although sources confirm that he did receive it.
