I don’t know anymore, if BISHOPS in communion with the Holy See are officially calling for women deacons (still and again) and the allowance of polygamy (this is a new one on me) then it’s time to start panicking. When the pope doesn’t shut that kind of talk down but seems to endorse it things are not as they should be.

It was Francis himself who brought up polygamy.

>>”Regarding the idea of divorced remarried Catholics being able to receive communion, he [Francis] noted how some assert it would be more difficult to come up with a universal response, but instead makes sense to come up with a regional treatment. He said it may make sense to examine and perhaps treat the situation on a more local, regional, even continental level.

Certain other issues, he shared, may also make sense to consider locally, such as polygamy.

“The Jubilee of Mercy requires a language of mercy,” he stated. Father Rosica underscored how language ought to always be inclusive, rather than exclusive, particularly for homosexuals.

“In particular, when speaking about homosexuals or gay persons,” he said, “we recognize them for who they are: They are our sons, our daughters, and brothers, sisters, neighbors and colleagues.”<<

The Archbishop of Quebec called for the discussion of women deacons I read in an article earlier today.
