Pope Francis has said Catholics must speak their minds and not be afraid to offend him, during his address to the opening session of the family synod at the Vatican this morning.
Speaking to the gathered bishops he said the faithful must not keep things back just because they might be worried “what will the Pope think”, according to Catholic News Service.
“Speak clearly. Don’t tell anyone, ‘you can’t say that’,” he added.
Pope Francis went on to say that “the spirit of collegiality is to speak boldly and to listen with humility” and he also welcomed the lay men and women present at the synod. “You enrich our spirit of synodality,” he told them.
During the two-week synod summaries of each session will be published by the Holy See press office at the end of each day.

  1. കനോന്‍ നിയമങ്ങള്‍ അനുസരിച്ചു അല്‍മായര്‍ക്ക് അഭിപ്രായ സ്വാതന്ത്ര്യമുണ്ട്. പക്ഷെ അല്‍മായര്‍ അഭിപ്രായം പറഞ്ഞാല്‍ തലമുറകളോളം ദൈവശാപംകിട്ടുമെന്നു പറഞ്ഞു ഭയപ്പെടുത്തകയും സഭാവിരോധിയാണെന്നു പറഞ്ഞു മുദ്രകുത്തുകയും ചെയ്യുന്ന പതിവ് മെത്രാന്‍മാരുടെയും വൈദികരുടെയിടയിലും ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നു. അതെല്ലാം കഴിഞ്ഞ കാലഘട്ടത്തിലെ കഥകളാണ്.
