Completing the circle of the Reformation
SIR – The most recurrent themes in your columns are those questions regarding married priests, celibacy and the ordination of women; to which must now be added issues raised by the LGBT movement. So we have writers who are either in favour or against any changes to the present practices of the Church. In addition, there is a growing and influential body of clergy who not only challenge Church teachings but also actively pursue their own line, one example being the decision of certain German bishops to administer Communion to non-Catholic spouses and to divorced and remarried Catholics.
