Austrian Catholics are kinda different, aren’t they…
That isn’t a question.
Merely an observation. Cardinal Schönborn from Vienna (considered ‘papabille’ before the election of Cardinal Ratzinger) appears to be a rather cosmopolitan man. Not long ago, he approved a blasphemous art exhibit in the Cathedral’s museum, and just recently he awarded a pro-abortionist woman one of the highest honors conferred by the Roman Catholic Church to lay-people; Papal knighthood.
The wonderful world of Eugenics.
“On June 25, Vienna Archbishop Cardinal Christoph Schönborn awarded Vienna Deputy Mayor Renate Brauner the Pontifical Order of St. Gregory the Great, one of the highest honors conferred by the Catholic Church. The German-language Catholic news service Kreuz.net reports that Brauner is a well-known supporter of abortion.
In 2000 when Austrian politician Herbert Haupt attempted to protect the right to life of handicapped children by banning abortion for such unborn children after the third month of pregnancy, Brauner strenuously opposed the move. “Hands off the abortion law!” Kreuz.net quotes her as saying.
“I consider Haupt’s suggestion to reduce the period of the so-called eugenic indication, an attempt to call abortion into question,” she said at the time. “This becomes clear as Haupt challenges the exclusive responsibility of the woman to decide for or against an abortion.”
In autumn 2005 she said: ‘If we socialist women speak about lasting values, we mean lasting women’s values - abortion rights are part of it.’” - Story
I’m sorry, I just don’t understand.

Not to worry, Miss Priss is here to help you understand. Miss Priss examines the reference Ms. Brauner makes to “we socialist women”, is that “we” or “wee”? Miss Priss thinks that “wee socialist women” would be very cute and a good example to the dietary conscious woman of today, quite unlike those “big boned” frau of Vienne, e.g. Ms. Renate Brauner herself. Unfortunately Miss Priss thinks that the Mayor of Vienne means “‘Oui!’ socialist women”, as in gals who can’t say “Non!”, hence the need to consider abortion “rights” a socialist priority. Miss Priss hopes this explanation makes clarity on this obscure matter.

Cardinal Schonborn is just another apostate. The Rock and Roll “mass” he presided over in 2005 is proof enough.
