Date: Monday, November 01, 1999 7:33 PM Und zo, der plot thickens . . . - Ceremonies mark the Joint Declaration of Catholics and Lutherans The two churches are taking a large step closer together. Tomorrow their joint declaration on the doctrine of justification will be signed in Augsburg. This has significance for the relation of the two churches to one another. Protestants and Catholics may be able in the foreseeable future to partake of communion together. But large differences still remain between the churches concerning the papacy and the sacraments, which was clear today during ceremonies in Augsburg. Everyone that spoke at the Augsburg city hall agreed that this weekend would go down in history. The President of the Ecumenical Council of Churches, Konrad Reiser, saw special significance in the fact that the joint declaration on the doctrine of justification would be signed in the place where the Reformation started. "It is important that this act can take place in Germany, here in Augsburg. I think it is important, in light of the fact that the Churches first split and the Reformation first began in this country, that the first important act toward healing that breach should also take place here." But the path to a common declaration was rocky. 243 Lutheran theologians led a protest as recently as last week, and conservative Catholics have also criticized the document. The latter fear a protestantization of the Catholic church. On that point, Karl Lehmann, the chairman of the Catholic conference of bishops, said "It will take a while before centuries- old ways of thinking of behaving can be broken down and a new language, foreign at first to both partners, can prove itself." It was thus clear during the ceremonies that the signing of the joint declaration was simply a first step on the long journey towards the unification of the churches. >From yesterday's eMailed German News.
