Marriage is between 1 man & 1 woman, committed for life & open to children. Attempts to redefine marriage fail to change this reality. If an element of the above definition is altered then no marriage exists no matter what words are used. Living a fiction is unhealthy.

When you ask the Church for the Sacraments, don’t hold it against the Church when the Church asks you to live the sacramental life. For the Church isn’t rejecting you but in fact respecting you, offering you what your soul really wants, really needs—a real shot at holiness.

Cardinal Zen, we do not know what lies ahead for you in this unjust world, but know that we love you and pray for you. And we know that God will give you your reward.
It would be good to join fasting and penance with our prayers for unity in the Church. Having said that, the response from the Vatican to the German bishops is encouraging.
Pray for the unity of the Church.

I agree with her thinking. There are two big obstacles to dialogue between Catholics and Protestants: agreement on meaning of words (forgiveness, salvation, etc.), and understanding what constitutes as evidence for each person involved in the conversation.
