After a Lively Start, Synod Affirms Priestly Celibacy and Other Traditions

RNS’ Vatican correspondent, Stacy Miechtry, reviews the output of the recent Catholic bishop’s synod in our article of the week, linked above.

Quote: But in the end, the bishops were not ready to take dramatic action at the synod, which traditionally convenes every two years. As an advisory body, the synod prepared a list of 50 propositions that bishops presented to the pope Saturday. Religion News Service obtained a copy of the list, which has not been publicly released.
