Bishop Athanasius Schneider: Regarding the Dubia presented by the five cardinals, including Cardinal Robert Sarah, this is considered a heroic and historically significant act. The presentation of these questions is not just for our current time but for the future 100–200 years and for eternity. It was a necessary and meritorious action to clarify matters of faith.
Katholische Antworten: John Gray, Religion News Service: What do you think of Pope Francis’s responses to the Dubia?
Bishop Athanasius Schneider: Unfortunately, the Pope’s answers are unsatisfactory. Rather than resolving doubts, they create more confusion. The answers were vague, unclear, and in some ways actively confusing. We must be honest: these responses do not clarify the questions. We should pray for the Pope so that he may provide clearer guidance in the future.
