That’s a whole different world. The Pope has affirmed that there will be no change on that matter, and indeed on this issue, there can be no change. While Archbishop of Buenos Aires, he called adoption by gays a form of child cruelty. Let’s not mix apples and oranges, and keep to the topic of admitting divorced/re-married Catholics to communion

If the seven Holy Sacraments are to be good only while they last, temporary, something to be arbitrated, and changeable, and quite based on the shifts of society and culture, and Ecumenical pleasure, and in this case two Holy Sacraments— of Holy Matrimony and Holy Communion, please then address the certainty of Sacred Tradition and The Catechism of the Catholic Church, and Canon Law, on the subject of divorce and remarriage without annulment, and Sacred Scripture, on the subject of adultery.

Sacred Tradition is one leg of the three on which the Catholic Church stands from the beginning. To see one leg broken by the manipulation of the other two makes my heart tremble. Sacred Tradition historically has not been thought to be “hardline”, in today’s social-political sense of the word.

I don’t see how entertaining the diabolical debate of this Synod strengthens and encourages Sacred Tradition, the Magisterium, Sacred Scripture, which is the traditional purpose of the Synod of Cardinals, reportedly, dating back to 800 AD.

I guess I would be interested in reading a debate between you and your premise, side by side with the sources Catholics depend on, and mentioned above.
