"neo-liberalism to the Free Democrats were joined by a new piety. Since 2009 there is even the group> Christians in the FDP parliamentary group, "to include nearly half of the group. Moreover, the parliamentary secretary Otto Fricke and Health Minister Philipp Rösler two leading representatives of the party Peak bodies of the Protestant and Catholic Church. "( Jungle World, January 6, 2011)
After the initial shock, light-clear announced. Peak body of the Protestant Church is the Council of the EKD, Otto Fricke but a thing of the EKD Synod, which is the Church House. He is also a member of the Board of Trustees the evangelical relief organization World Vision Germany . And he pays homage to quite remarkable theological views:
» 'God is a liberal. The emphasis is also on the. Not: God is Liberal, but he is also, 'said the 44-year-old Fricke. God is also> a conservative, in many places even a very conservative. In many very social. \u0026lt;Watch you look at the Bible closer to say, then the basis of the Bible in many places a social market economy, it is the Protestant convinced. "(source )
Accordingly, God is apparently from an amalgam of free-and Christian-democratic positions, mixed with a little social conscience, à la bayerntümelndem Seehofer. God is for the social market economy, probably he is also against stem cell research and PGD. In considering military service, vs. Professional army is probably God divided against itself.
With Philipp Rösler as health minister God is certainly the capitation. Roesler is a Catholic layman, not incidentally, a member of the Executive Committee of the Catholic Church, the German Bishops' Conference be. Rather, he is a member of the Assembly of the Central Committee of German Catholics , the lay panel of German Catholicism. Since Lai_innen have in the Roman Catholic Church is well known, not much to report, the ZdK is no official body of the church.
The above-linked source is way more information about the group » Christians in the FDP parliamentary group" award: It comprises 41 members from the Free Democratic group, she takes part in the interdenominational prayer breakfast group, which takes place regularly in the Bundestag. It was founded by Patrick Meinhardt that seems to have driven a religious identity crisis of faith in the liberal God: » We were eleven years in opposition, there is one meaning of life. "(! click ) Apparently, but as yet none of his supporters asked the god of the liberals, what's the point of a party like the FDP - beyond the fact that yet each a clown circus needed, I mean, of course.
