I'm cautiously optimistic about this. Not that there will be revolutionary change, because there won't. At least not immediately. But I often think of the Catholic church like a huge ocean liner. To turn the thing, you've got to start hauling the wheel a couple of miles before you actually need to make the turn. This feels like that.
It doesn't change the fact that they're hauling the wheel awfully late, and by the time they get to where society is now, it's likely society will have moved on even further, but I'd like to hope that people who get value out of the church will be able to see it being ultimately compassionate toward people no matter what.
