Germany’s Gender Problem

The lack of adhering to Scripture is deeply contributing to Germany’s embrace of sexual sin.

Christian podcast host Allie Beth Stuckey had a very interesting interview earlier this week. She talked to Father Calvin Robinson, an Anglican priest, on the topic of blasphemy in the Church.

They went through several examples worldwide, including the deeply heretical “sparkle creed” here in the U.S.

One example was a German pastor declaring that “God is queer.” Father Robinson then made the offhand comment:: “Why does all heresy seem to start in Germany? A lot of the heresy around the Protestant movement began in Germany. Same with the Roman Catholics. We’ve got their bishops now out there now pushing for female priests and bishops and for approval of gay marriage — all kinds of things that go against the Scriptures. There’s something really, really wicked at the heart of Germany. I don’t know what it is.”

It prompted the question: What exactly is going on in Germany that is evoking this particular response from a priest from the UK? Are Germans and the Protestant/Catholic Church in Germany really struggling?

The short answer is “Yes” on all three counts — the German people, the German Protestant Church, and the German Roman Catholic Church are struggling mightily against the heresy of the LGBTQ+ agenda (which contradicts explicit teaching from the Bible) and particularly the transgender agenda (which is also a Marxist version of gnostic dualism).

The German people have fallen hook, line, and sinker for the LGBTQ+ agenda (read: Queer Marxism) that actively seeks to sexualize children to justify its own perversion.

Reduxx writer Genevieve Gluck has been publishing article after article after article uncovering increasingly dark evidence of this Queer Marxism in Germany. Perhaps the worst was the infiltration of a sex education group that wanted daycares to have “sexual games” and nude “exploration rooms.” But all the articles describe horrific attacks against children and those that would use and abuse them.

As for the German Protestant Church, there are a lot of indications that this community has been ripe for a cultural and cultish takeover. According to The Christian Post, “A new study from the theologians at the University of Leipzig finds that only 1.6% of the German population reads the Bible at least once a day, and only 3.2% read it every week, despite half of its population identifying as Protestant or Catholic.” Why is this relevant to the LGBTQ+ dilemma within Christian teaching? Well, if you don’t know what the Bible actually says, then those who have an agenda to pervert and divert the Church (which we here in America call the “deconstructionists”) have a much easier time planting the original lie, “Did God really say?”

Many Germans who claim to be Christians don’t believe that the Bible is even relevant to their everyday lives. If you don’t believe the Bible and its teachings, how can you claim to be a Christian? And why bother?

German Catholics have an even bigger fight ahead. The American Conservative described a vote by the Catholic Church leaders in Frankfurt, Germany, who voted 168-28 to “adopt a draft statement on sexuality that includes a resolution saying that ‘same-sex partnerships who want to take the risk of an unbreakable common life … should be able to see themselves placed under the blessing of God.’” In other words, they voted to ignore God’s design for marriage — one man and one woman— and bless same-sex marriages.

The implications for the rest of the German Catholic Church is probably going to be a schism at some point in the near future because, even to this day (the American Conservative article was written in 2021), the German bishops are steadfastly refusing to come under the authority of the Pope in Rome.

It is sad to see a country where some of the riches traditions of the Protestant Church have sprung turn into a country where the term “Christian” is merely a cultural distinction, not an actual following of the faith. Then again, the Protestant Reformation began in Germany 506 years ago, so there’s still hope.
