I DAGEN 2 nov beskriver jag hur ”Den offentliga debatten i andra länder uppvisar olika katolska uppfattningar och åsikter – detta i motsats till Sverige”.
”Ett exempel är Svt Utrikesbyrån den 28 september där ämnet var abort, aborträtt i allmänhet och lagändringen i Texas och Mexiko i synnerhet. De medverkande presenteras så här: “I studion: Lotten Collin som bevakat Sydamerika i över ett decennium, New York-baserade skribenten Jenny Nordberg och Fiorella Bastidas från svenska Catholic Voices.”

Mediaträning sker i ”särskilt läran bakom kyrkans inställning till de kontroversiella frågorna, som ofta ger anledning till att kyrkan omnämns i media.”
Bland mediatränarna finns bla p. Thomas Idergard SJ och Msgr Jorge de Salas Opus Dei

Ett resultat av mediaträningen i Catholic Voices är bla Fiorella Bastidas som fick representera katolska kyrkan i Utrikesbyrån 28 sept.
”Men det finns mer än en katolsk uppfattning” Tex Catholics for Choice – vars nuvarande ordförande heter Jamie L Manson och som ”vid 14 års ålder ville bli katolsk präst. ”
”At fourteen years old, Jamie Manson felt like she had a calling to become a Catholic priest. Because she was a girl though, she was laughed at and ignored.” “But I kept persisting,” Manson, now an out lesbian, told LGBTQ Nation.

ABORT
”Everyone deserves equal access to the full range of reproductive healthcare services, including safe and legal abortion. The majority of Catholics believe that abortion should be legal. When navigating Catholic teachings on abortion, your conscience is the ultimate authority.” https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/abortion/
JÄMSTÄLLDHET MELLAN KÖNEN
“The Catholic Church has long since been a primary global carrier of the toxic virus of misogyny. Its leadership has never sought a cure for that virus, though the cure is freely available: Its name is equality.” Mary McAleese fd Irlands president https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/gender-equity/
PREVENTIVMEDEL
“Contraceptives are the greatest lifesaving, poverty-ending, women-empowering innovation ever created.” Melinda Gates Filantrop och författare https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/contraception/
REPRODUKTIV RÄTTVISA
“Choice is not worth much to women who have no choices. ”Loretta J. RossGodmother of the Reproductive Justice Movement https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/reproductive-choice/
KATOLSK HÄLSOVÅRD
”Catholic health care often denies patients and health professionals of all faiths the opportunity to make choices based on the discernment of their own consciences.”
“There are doctors who do this work intentionally from a faith perspective, who do it from their own religious values. And these Catholic hospitals are trouncing on the doctors’ and their patients’ consciences.” Glenn NorthernCatholics for Choice Domestic Program Director https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/healthcare/
OPPOSITION
“The Knights want you to believe any questions about their agenda are an attack against Catholicism. But the truth is that they are diverting tax-free resources to advance an agenda—under the guise of religious freedom—that is completely out of touch with the majority of Catholics.” Cynthia RomeroHuman rights activist and former Catholics for Choice Director of Communications https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/opposition/
SAMVETE
“The church, your parents, grandma, no one has the right to suggest that your conscience is wrong or that your conscience makes you a bad Catholic.” Kate Ott Assistant Professor of Christian Social Ethics, Drew University Theological School https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/conscience/
RELIGIONSFRIHET
”People have the right to their own religious beliefs, but everyone also has the right to be free from the religious beliefs of others.” https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/religious-freedom/
SOCIAL RÄTTVISA
”Access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare is a value rooted in Catholic social justice teaching.”
“At the very root of our social justice teaching is our belief that we support those who are underprivileged in any way. No woman should be discriminated against because of where she lives or how much she earns.” Linda PintoMother, grandmother, and former nun https://www.catholicsforchoice.org/issues/social-justice/
Även när det gäller frågan om homosexualitet och kvinnliga ämbetsbärare finns mer än en uppfattning inom katolska kyrkan och dessa frågor finns också uppe på agendan i förberedelserna för den kommande biskopssynoden om Synodalitet 1923.
Kvinnliga ämbetsbärare? Frågan kvarstår
Thomas Idergard Hur ska vår polariserade kyrka få ihop det ?
Klaus Mertes SJ om mänskliga rättigheter och homosexuella
Kardinal Schönborn ”Kyrkan kan inte vägra homosexuella välsignelse”
Varför är Ulf Jonsson SJ tyst?
Låt också biskop Georg Bätzing tala i Stockholms Katolska Stift !
Den synodala vägen som svar på klerikalism och mörkläggning av prästers pedofili
Som sagt uppfattningar varierar inom katolska kyrkan. Återstår att se vad biskopssynoden kommer fram till ……..Reformer …….eller status quo ………som Catholic Voices önskar …….?
