Unbearable
During the daily briefing of the Vatican Pravda on the Synod, the Spanish language spokesman gave an account of a "deeply touching" moment of the interventions before the plenary assembly, according to La Republica, whose journalist Antonello Guerrera says on Twitter that, it's "the story that made the Synod cry." [sic] (This is also on Vatican Insider, that speaks of "emotionally strong words.")As everyone knows, since yesterday afternoon, the Synod speaks of nothing else, once again, than of "remarried divorcees"... Well, then, a bishop (whose name is not said) spoke of a first communion mass in which a little boy, receiving the host in his hand, broke it in two in order to give half to his father, because the latter is divorced and remarried, and cannot therefore receive communion from the hands of the priest...When do we reach the bottom so that we can begin to climb back up?
