Here’s commentary about the relatio published yesterday by the synod on the family that seems to me well worth reading (for the context of this opening remark, please see the preceding posting, of which this one is a continuation):
On her Facebook page, Heidi Schlumpf* notes that several comments Jamie Manson has made recently on her own Facebook page sum up for Heidi her reaction to the synod (as they do for me, too):
I’ve been silent on the Synod on the Family so far. But Jamie L. Manson has pretty much summed it up for me (I’m reposting three of her FB posts below:)
Reading my newsfeed this week feels like drowning in a deluge of male-privilege and hetero-normativity. #synod14
The Catholic media needs more white, privileged, ostensibly hetero men to explain this Synod to us. Otherwise, how will we ever get the unbiased viewpoint? #synod14
Yay! Another day of straight folks telling me how great the news from the Vatican is!
