German women should be encouraged to “stay at home and bring three or four children into the world” to increase the birth rate, according to Cardinal Joachim Meisner of Cologne.
He said immigration is not the answer to the demographic crisis in Germany, which has the lowest birth rate in Europe at 1.36 children per woman.
The cardinal compared the government’s family policies to those of Communist East Germany, where women who wanted to stay at home to look after their children were considered “demented”.
