His Excellency Bishop Athanasius Schneider

On the present situation of the contemplative life of the Church

"[The nuns should continue to live their charism] with a ecclesiastical spirit, sentire cum Ecclesia [i.e., thinking with the Church], without revolt, without doing polemics, continuing to love and to pray for the pope and for the bishops evermore."

"[These nuns could say to Pope Francis] Holy Father, we cannot here obey because this will harm Mother Church. Evidently, we cannot collaborate in harming such a great treasure of our holy Mother Church or of our cloistered charism which the Church blessed since Saint Theresa, [for] more than four centuries. We will deprive the Church [if we obey], we will harm the Church, and we cannot collaborate in harming the Church."

"The Holy See unfortunately tries to change their proper charism to be cloistered – so not to go out of the cloister – and so the pope mandated, Pope Francis with his document, the Vatican document on cloistered nuns [Cor Orans], to force them to join so-called federations with the compulsory participation in periodical meetings, information sessions outside the cloister in different places, so that the sisters have to travel and then periodically to go out from the cloister. And so this is a destruction, really, of the precious gift of God for the strict cloistered life."

"I think the sisters have to resist [because] it is against entire tradition of the Church [and a] destruction of the cloistered life. [The Sisters] cannot obey, even it comes from Rome.”

His Eminence Cardinal Gerhard Muller

“The danger that I see is this, that in the Congregation for the Religious Life, there are people who have no understanding [of] the vita contemplativa, [who think that the contemplative life] has no practical sense. But the sense [purpose] of our human, Christian existence is the adoration of God without our own interests. [There exists between man and God a] communion of love [and, therefore] all the tradition of the Church respected not only the active life, but also the contemplation, [the] two wings of the religious life. [It makes] no sense to destroy [it], to suppress [it]. No Pope has the right to define the ecclesiastical life of this discipline once and forever."
