The Synod on Synodality is an „unprecedented event,” homosexualist Cardinal Mario Grech, the Synod's general-secretary, told Christopher Lamb (podcast, May 19).
Previous synods were prepared by the Vatican but the ongoing will be formed by the submissions of the bishops’ conferences, Grech claims. He insists that “it is not true that nothing will change. I can tell you there is already a change.”.
Regarding the usual underwear topics and female ordination, Grech replied that “nothing should be left under the carpet“ - as if sex hasn't been rotting on the ecclesiastical carpet for the last fifty years. He believes that without becoming a "Synodal Church", it will be more difficulty to address certain questions.
Grech is not worried about the German Synod. For him, the open fight between German and Catholic bishops "is synodality." In contrast, Lamb admits that the German synod has become a "proxy war" around Francis’ papacy and the Synod on Synods.

Its a war among Bishops which will continue to grow, especially in the next papal election.
Thr Church will need a new Council after the next strife. We’re almost into a new Arian Crisis.
Can someone tell me what the word ‘Synod’ refers to? I see it everyday in threads and have no idea what it is referring to. THX in advance.
