It's good for the soul as it's much needed peace and quiet. And lots of One Tree Hill :biggrin:

Lol! It's not that brilliant but usually it makes me feel better. And I heard the cast may be doing a fan meet in London. Best news I've heard today apart from going to Swansea :awesome:

If I was to eat the face of Jesus, would it turn into bread in my stomach?

Bit disappointed about the outcome of the Synod, but think it's good that they decided to focus on these issues for once and that they were at least talked about :yes:

I don't think it is in the least bit surprising. Catholicism is generally a rather socially conservative religion and this is due to the fact that those higher up within the Church are mostly older men. These are men who would have largely grown up in societies/communities where such socially conservative views were common. Younger generations have always been the ones to generally turn against such socially conservative ideals and to embrace more newer socially liberal ideals.

I do however believe that a generation or two along, when today's younger priests who have grown up with more socially liberal ideals because the Churches leaders, that the Catholic Church will experience a changing stance towards such issues.

I wasn't surprised either! :nah:

Just disappointed, that's all! :yes:
