Forum of German Catholics

[3] The forum, made up of members of the Catholic laity, claims to be committed to "unadulterated and unabridged" faith.

The resolution also stated that the "systematic displacement of the Christian faith from politics and public life" was the most dangerous threat in Europe.

[4] In 2007 Eva Herman, who has been accused of promoting ideas from the Third Reich, served as a guest speaker at the forum's seventh annual congress.

[5] Her involvement was criticized by Dieter Graumann, Vice President of the Central Council of Jews in Germany.

[6] Herman's involvement was also protested by Alois Rhiel, the Minister of Economics in Hesse, who resigned from his patronage of the congress.
