Archbishop Miller Returns from the Synod in Rome

[@christopheranderson7634]

I wonder at the Synod, did they ever reflect on what Jesus wants for the Catholic Church?

[@1951kvk]

A synod consists of bishops only, not the laity.

[@DayanidhiBisoiSJ]

The Church is the Church of faithful, of Laity and not of Bishops alone. We have become more conservative and love to see the Bishops taking king's throne. Never intended by Jesus.

[@EvelynRivera-z3k]

That was a vapid conversation. The Bishop was mostly in awe of the technology. The church is already inclusive welcoming everyone yet people choose not to participate because too much is expected of our fallen natures. People need to learn to enter into the scriptures deeply and not look to change them. Yes women need to be more involved. They need to spend time with the scriptures and also actively engage their children to do so as well. From there will flow a more Christlike humanity.

Well said. Soft ball questions with pedestrian answers. Nothing to see here.

[@ebaiz40]

what specifically has the synod change from scriptures?

[@kevinomahony4139]

Excuse me your excellency, but Vatican II was an ecumenical council - not a synod. A synod makes recommendations while an ecumenical council promulgates doctrine.

[@MrMercytres]

Thank you Jesus finally you have this Father to explain about the synod.. How important it is to be silent to listen and to contemplate. You are so humble .

[@mikecarroll4735]

Humans shouldn't play with God's book, specifically priests. You've got to do a better job for selection of priests & Bishops

[@ebaiz40]

On what facts do you base this statement?

[@Abraham-uk4xy]

Agreed

[@eithnamurphy8288]

This is what ‘not in touch’ looks like

[@chrissobolewski5509]

Thank you for sharing your own perspective. The dialogue process allows all to share their thoughts. Very different to what most laity encounter which is HIPPO (Highest Paid Persons’ Opinion) who dominate and discount other voices.

[@williamcifuentes3555]

What a bland chap. Typical of the modern Church. How seminarians does the diocese of Vancouver have?

[@myleshagar9722]

The Archbishop almost succeeds in appearing serious.

Invite sinners who want to repent, not sinners that embrace their sins. The latter have chosen, and only God and evangelization can save them.

I hope that Archbishop Miller will come to the Archdiocese of New York. I would like to see him preach St. Patrick's Cathedral (Midtown Manhattan), Church of St. Vincent Ferrer (Manhattan), St. Joseph Church (Yorkville, Manhattan), and Church of St. Ignatius Loyola (New York City).
