Withdrawal of the church license to teach

After a dispute with the Regensburg Bishop Gerhard Ludwig Müller , Jilek was withdrawn from the diocese of Regensburg in 2004 because Jilek had considered leaving the Catholic Church in a letter. On November 4, 2009, the episcopal press office of the diocese of Regensburg declared that Jilek could not speak for the Catholic Church due to "lack of insight into the basic data of the Catholic faith".
