  • Cabinda and Germany
    ABSTRACT Angola’s president João Lourenço is on an official visit to Germany from 22nd to 23rd August 2018. Since it is factual that Angola’s ruling MPLA-regime is but a proxy server of a few Western nations accountable for the belligerent occupation of the territory of Cabinda since 1975; for the misappropriation of the Cabinda people’s own means of subsistence; and for the consequent genocide of the native Cabindans at home and abroad; the Presidential College of CNM (Cabindan National Movement) cannot help referring once more the legal-political difference between Cabinda and Angola to both the German people’s and government’s sense of justice and of international responsibility. Ever since the mid-1990s, CNM has tirelessly demonstrated, also to the German “Auswärtiges Amt,” the fact that Western instigated illicit occupation of Cabinda by Angola is the major contributing factor to the political instability and insecurity in Central and Southern Africa, inasmuch as it cannot help frustrating the free functioning of democratic institutions in Cabinda’s neighboring countries. The harmful consequences of the occupation are such that life expectancy at birth has dropped from 75 years in Portuguese colonial era to 48 years nowadays; and child and maternal mortality rates are among the highest in the world. Cabinda, whose nationals do not exceed two million, is rich in oil, uranium, manganese, phosphates, iron, diamonds, gold, hardwood, and so forth. In oil alone, Cabinda is being CABINDA AND robbed of over 35 Billion US dollars per year. Accordingly, the goal of president Lourenço’s visit is to dissuade Germany from siding with the oppressed people of Cabinda, in our legitimate struggle to regain political and economic sovereignty, by offering lucrative business opportunities to German entrepreneurs and GERMANY bankers interested in.

RAUSCH IN JANUARY 1991 Archbishop Rembert Weakland, O.S.B., of Milwaukee made headlines when he published the draft of a pastoral let- ter for his archdiocese. In it he stated his willingness to present to Rome A number a married male candidate for ordination to the priesthood—when a Catholic community that met certain conditions of faith and vitality was of theses not able to find a celibate priest. His proposal was carefully circumscribed. As he said later, it was to countering be "only in extreme necessity and under very rigid conditions." Nevertheless, his raising this issue was apparently too mueh for the current Vatican. When the final draft of his pastoral letter was published on Nov. 7. 1991. the Archbishop disclosed that the Vatican Secretary of State misapprehensions had termed his proposal for priest-short areas and communities "out of and suggesting place." Archbishop Weakland is not the only bishop to have raised the issue another view of celibacy lately.

Wedel Dr. Joachim v Wedel is a post-doctoral researcher at the Center for Baltic and East European Studies at Södertörn University in Huddinge/Stockholm, Sweden. This article discusses which indicators are most suitable to identify the historical basis for the self- identification of religious communities in the Szczecin/Stettin region. The praxis of religious communities is regularly centered in worship. Worship services meet spiritual needs, but are not required to inform the worshiper about the historical-geographical localization of its faith community. No worship participant would expect the pastor to offer an answer to the question: “What binds our faith community historically with the region where we live?” Even when meeting with fellow believers from abroad, questions concerning the geographic presence of one’s own congregation are usually deemed superfluous.

  • The Catholic Church in the GDR: a Look Back in Anger
    The Catholic Church in the GDR: a Look Back in Anger FR HANS-FRIEDRICH FISCHER I would like to look back with you over the 45-year history of the Catholic Church on the territory of the present GDR. You will soon see that I am looking back with mixed feelings. The Catholic Church in the GDR was and still is a diaspora church. In 1988 the population of the GDR was 16.5 million: of these one million were Catholics, some six per cent of the population. It was refugees after the Second World War who first gave a big boost to the number of Catholics in what was to become the GDR. The influx of believers from Silesia, Pomerania, East Prussia, the Sudetenland and Hungary marked a new beginning in pastoral activity. At the same time, tried and tested church structures wen! being reestablished and consolidated. The period up to the building of the Wall could be called 'the phase of unbroken Catholicism'. The concepts Christianity, Catholicism and Catholic Church were to all intents and purposes identical for the majority of Christians. The faith of this diaspora church which had suddenly grown so much in size found self-confident expression in a rich variety of ceremonies, festivals and holy days throughout the church's year. The already existing religious traqitions were supplemented by traditions brought in by the immigrants. Many parishes came back to life at this time. For many of the new arrivals, the church became their 'sacred homeland', to use a slogan from the contemporary pastoral programme of the· Leipzig -Oratorium.

  • The Catholic Church in Eastern Germany: Strategies and Rhetoric of a Changing Minority*
    Religion, State & Society, Vo!. 28, No. 2, 2000 The Catholic Church in Eastern Germany: Strategies and Rhetoric of a Changing Minority* BARBARA THERIAULT The Catholic Church that occupies the territory of the new German states has been a minority church since the Reformation. I Unlike Catholics in other minority and hostile situations, such as Northern Ireland, however, Catholics in East Germany did not use the universalist aspect of their church's ideology to translate it into an assertion of universal rights; nor did some propensity to martyrdom drive them to heroic actions.2 Instead, Catholics in the GDR lived a ghetto existence. Whereas Protestants are remembered for their role in the 1980s and the Peaceful Revolution, the Catholic Church played a minor, unobtrusive role in the country's political life and was known as the 'Church of Silence'.3 Yet German unification endowed Catholic organisations with a new role in the eastern German Uinder (the regional states on the territory of the former GDR) that had previously been characterised by hostile policies towards religious organisations. German unification according to Article 23 of the West German Grundgesetz (Basic Law or Constitution) extended the institutions and structures of the Federal Republic to the East.' By the same token, East German Catholicism was integrated into the structures of West German Catholicism. Catholics have accordingly become part of an elaborate network of associations. Indeed, with its creation of new structures, restoration or expansion of older ones and takeover of formerly state-run social institutions, and with the political power now wielded by Catholics in political office, all of this constituting 'die Katholizierung von oben', to paraphrase a cynical Protestant theologian,s the Catholic Church in the new German states has, since the fall of the Berlin Wall, often been seen as an ambitious minority organisation.
