If I may be so bold -
“I do not know what to counsel”
First and foremost, keep your faith in Jesus Christ, and his saving grace, and pray that God sees you through your trials.
Technically, a Synod doesn’t make any declarations that require obedience by the faithful. It exists as an advisory body to the Holy Father.
It’s official. I do not like Pope Francis. The Holy See has been infiltrated by the politically correct and the lavender mafia. With the cowards and apostates like Cardinal Dolan to the Pope, where are the leaders with the balls to defend Catholic doctrine?
**Secondly, I say this Synod is a sham because if it does, for whatever reason (the true disposition of the majority of the bishops, or the heavy influence of the Bishop of Rome moving men to unprecedented disassociation with the Gospel and the Inspiration of the Blessed Trinity) try to foist a new “gospel” on the Church, that in and of itself will be……well, I think we know it will be very, very bad, but as the Voice of the Family has apparently already declared, it could also mean this Synod is some false body that does not merit obedience to its declarations.**
It is definitely a sham synod. But how do we let our bishops know?
Call them, fax them, email them!

Henry VIII destroyed the English Catholic Church because the nasty ole Church wouldn't let him divorce Katherine of Aragon. He had to have a SON.
So he married SIX women to get a son...all for nothing. The one son he did have died before his 20th birthday.
Do you know the little poem about the fate of King Henry's wives?
EVEN the most powerful and wealthy Medici family finally died out OR the Medici family is making raviolis in Sorrento, Milano and Poughkeepsie.
The Church and its COMMANDMENTS from God will stay the way they are. That is what the "Vicars of Christ" do here on God's good earth.

Chastity and homosexuality
2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.
2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided. These persons are called to fulfill God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition.
2359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity. By the virtues of self-mastery that teach them inner freedom, at times by the support of disinterested friendship, by prayer and sacramental grace, they can and should gradually and resolutely approach Christian perfection.✝============================================================✝
