![]() Obedience!Gehorsam!With their "Appeal to Disobedience" the Austrian Priests' Initiative for church reform have caused a great stir among Catholic laity and church authority. According to a survey, 71% of Catholics in Austria support the aims of the rebellious priests. There is particularly great support for a priesthood of married men and for female priests. But what does the priests' "disobedience" mean in concrete terms? How does the church define obedience, or in other words, who must a priest obey: the bishop, his own conscience - or God? The documentary "Obedience" attempts to find answers to these questions and provides an outlook on the consequences of disobedience for the church of the future. |
