It looks as if the upcoming World Meeting of Families to be held in Dublin, may be contentious.

From Fr. Regis Scanlan, OFMCAP:

“By now everyone — especially Catholics — should know that the 2018 World Meeting of Families, sponsored by the Vatican Congregation of Marriage and Family Life, will gather in Dublin, Ireland this August.

In recent months, stories about the gathering have multiplied. Videos have been made about the scheduled participants. Organizers have been interviewed. The program’s title has been explained that “Gospel of the Family, Joy for the World,” is inspired by Pope Francis’s Apostolic Exhortation, Amoris Laetitia.

What is less obvious is that this meeting presents a serious problem for Pope Francis and the Church.

Why? Because the themes of the interviews and stories are clear: This meeting is a “full court press” attempt to pressure Pope Francis into welcoming the LGBT into the Church as a legitimate type of family.”

 
I don’t know what these people are trying? It angers me that they are trying to make it seem okay, that it will ever be accepted. We are not a democratic Church. We don’t vote or persuade people to change opinion. Their lobbies will never work because God is at the entrance of that marked off door with an offended expression. It won’t happen.
