Cant be long before Catholic priests are fined for not allowing same sex unions in our churches. 'When things are at their worst, ' cant be very far away. Although it is clear much of the Hierarchy believe those enjoying such abominations bring' Gifts and qualities'.
I think the latter is an exaggeration Mac. There are some no doubt but a minority and even that is a scandal.
While not reaching the 2thirds majority at the Synod ,over 50% approved the mid term report. How is that a minority?
I see the Hierarchy as those who hold the office of Bishop and higher (not just those who vote at the Synod).

The moral decline, I think it's fair to say, would be better described as a moral avalanche. Euthanasia is a 'right' in Canada and will likely be introduced there shortly: http://m.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-31170569 If ever there was a story to go some way toward explaining why the Pope keeps referencing the book "Lord of this world", it's this story. In that book, euthanasia was used on two separate occasions. Felsenburgh really is walking among us...
I am thinking perhaps that most of the 'liberal' hierarchy are to be found in the Europe/USA whereas those in Africa/Asia tend to be more orthodox. But Mac you are probably right. I need to take off my 'rose tinted glasses'.
"I wish to express my appreciation to the entire Slovak Church, encouraging everyone to continue their efforts in defence of the family, the vital cell of society." - Pope Francis Wednesday ahead of today's SSM referendum in Slovakia. What strikes me about this story is that the conservative groups in Slovakia have expressed the exact same concern we feel on this this forum at the phenomenon Pope Francis genially called "ideological colonization", which is just as much to do with freedom than with SSM: "The European Parliament and some EU member states have passed laws that undermine the unique nature of marriage, families and children's rights. We're worried about parents losing the freedom to raise their kids according to their beliefs." I wonder if any of us realize the power groups like Amnesty International have in influencing our lawmakers? Democracy is seriously undermined: democracy and freedom can never be mutually exclusive, like Faith without works, one without the other is dead. Let's us join the Pope in prayer for our brothers and sisters in Slovakia today. http://m.bbc.com/news/world-europe-31170464
