"Moral Quality? Ultra Liberal Munich Cardinal Reinhard Marx has claimed in front of a German paper that a family consisting of a man and a woman is – quote the “ideal concept” for the Church. But – the Cardinal added immediately: “Other forms of life in which humans take lasting responsibility for each other cannot be entirely denied of a moral quality”. The Cardinal was speaking about homosexual cohabitation that according to natural moral is a mortal sin. Marx belongs to Pope Francis’ council of eight cardinals. He has also allowed the immoral use of the immoral morning after pill in Munich Catholic hospitals". Gloria.TV News on the 17th of February 2014
