I ...No. It's not in today's print edition.<br /><br />I see this: "The Rev. Thomas Reese, a priest-journalist covering the synod, said the clergy are “in a panic. They are afraid this welcoming language will confuse people. They’ll think the church is going to change its teaching.” None of the 190 clergy are pushing for that, he said.<br /><br />“You get the impression they are very concerned, they want more theology in the document. They want more church teaching in the document. They want more encouragement to Catholics who are struggling to follow church teaching. They are very much afraid if they talk too much about what’s good in these incomplete and impartial relationships that people will say: ‘Then why should I bother doing what the church teaches?’”"<br /><br />I'm not sure that "precious" and "valuable" are worth fighting over given the magnitude of the difference between "welcome" and "provide for". And I have to say: WTF does Reese mean by "impartial relationships"? Seriously. What does he mean? Non-complementarian?The Ridger, FCDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01538111197270563075noreply@blogger.com
