Church should not fear change, pope says at synod close...ah, the rallying cry of every sociopath I've ever known - you couldn't possibly object to the substance of the bizarre things I wnat you to do - you're just afraid to make a change........

“Quite a dilemma for them, isn’t it?”
What dilemma? Whatever the circumstances, whatever this pope personally believes, the fact that God won’t permit a pope to formally teach an error on faith or morals was just proven again for the whole world to witness.

It depends on which side of the reform you’re on who considers it right.
I don’t doubt if Catholics were convinced that the reform they were calling for was the correct kind, that the *church* (those being reformed against so to speak) would disagree with that assessment.

He sits in Peters chair.
I put my trust in the Holy Spirit. He is my Pope.

Quite a dilemma for them, isnt it? no dilemma at all, we can and do respect homosexual people and divorced and remarried couples. Can they attend Mass , of course they can and do. They are welcomed. Can they receive the Eucharist faithfully....no...and I don't see that changing ever. As far as the divorced and remarried person, when the original spouse dies, the other partner can recieve the Eucharist.

Strange how the Catholic Church deems itself inerrant and final authority, yet dramatically changes is position many times no it doesn't...and it has been here for 2,014 years

dont be afraid to venture to another place of worship. As Christians come under increased persecution, well have to change our meeting venues anyway. just what the protestants did the last time...choose whatever you want to do and insist that it is right....OK I guess...

It’s not a Catholic vs. Protestant point. Shouldn’t it be about adhering to what Jesus commanded, irregardless of a specific meeting place? In the not too distant future, Christians will have to meet in homes anyway to avoid persecution.
