Yeah I'm German too. We have religion in school and as a tax.
And we were a bit late to the party with same-sex marriage because of the party with 'christian' in the name...
What I think is outrageous is that we have denominational hospitals, schools and kindergärten, and they don't have to abide by the same labor law as literally everyone else. They can - and will - fire people for things like divorce. Or being gay. All whilst being (sometimes entirely) funded by the state or health insurance.
And in my opinion we shouldn't allow them to openly discriminate against women and gay people... Have a look at what the danish people did and force the catholic church to do same-sex marriages... and accept women as priests. I really don't get why they get a special treatment when it gets to hating on people and they're the only ones allowed to do it professionally.
