A court in Mechelen has found retired Archbishop Jozef De Kesel, 77, and his successor as Brussels Archbishop Luc Terlinden, 55, guilty of discrimination (June 25).

Veer Dusauchoit, 62, from the Flemish town of Herent, tried to register for deacon training but was refused entry because she is a woman. She filed a lawsuit.

The court ruled that both archbishops had violated "gender equality" and must pay the elderly woman of 1,500€ in compensation.

At the same time, the court admitted that it could not rule on church law because of the principle of separation of church and state and the constitutional principle of freedom of religion. The woman will not be admitted to the diaconal training.

The parties can appeal the decision.
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
