The German Synod approved on March 10 a document entitled “Blessings for Couples Who Love Each Other” including homosexuals and adulterers.
Only nine bishops voted against openly contradicting truth and Holy Scripture. 38 bishops voted in favour and 11 abstained. If the latter had voted "no", they would have blocked the "abomination" (Bible, Catechism).
The bishops' voting against the text did not impress. Eichstätt Bishop Gregor Hanke announced that he would vote against because such "blessings" draw a parallel between homosex relationships and marriage - as if this were the real problem.
Regensburg Bishop Rudolf Voderholzer justified his no vote by saying that he was “not sure” that a blessing was the way "to respect homosexuals."

I don't know if ABSTENTION includes those not present at this ''Synod'' if any.

Some bishops and Cardinals are not doing the Will of God but the will of the father of lies

Jorge should initiate dismissals from the clerical state and ferendae sententiae excommunications for all the protestants masquerading as Catholics who were involved in this garbage.

Should say; German apostate synod...

Bishop Strickland: "This action is schism plain & simple. As the Vatican made clear months ago, “We cannot bless sin”. The 38 bishops who voted for this need to repent and return to the Catholic Church, the Bride of Christ."

So, it seems that, according to +Bonny's account of what the Pope said at the Belgian «ad limina», bishops can make pastoral decisions about same-sex blessings (even though Rome has said «non possumus»), but not about whether the TLM can be celebrated in parish churches. 🤷

The 'ja' voters aren't even in the Catholic Church, so no worries! These heretics are manifesting according to plan. At least they blantantly 'out' themselves nowadays...pun intended...and everyone can clearing see they serve the devil instead of having to sift through the boring, ambiguous rhetoric.
