Английская Википедия:Central Committee of German Catholics
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Expand German Шаблон:Infobox organization The Central Committee of German Catholics (Шаблон:Lang-de, ZdK) is a lay body comprising representatives of various Catholic organisations in Germany. They organise the Catholic Days in Germany. The organisation is headquartered in Berlin.
Its predecessor, the Catholic Society of Germany (Шаблон:Lang-de), was founded in 1848 by Charles, 6th Prince of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rosenberg, who served as its first President. In 1952, it was renamed the Central Committee of German Catholics. In 2000 a conservative organization, the Forum of German Catholics, was founded in opposition to the committee.
In May 2015 the Central Committee of German Catholics voted in favour of blessing of same-sex unions in Christian churches.[1]
Together with the German Bishops' Conference, the Central Committee of German Catholics organized the Synodal Way from 2019 to 2023, which was supposed to find solutions for the structural issues that made the sexual abuse of minors in the Church possible.
