It’s a working document. The process isn’t over. One-hundred-ninety bishops have to vote. They’re still revising. The Pope, Pope Francis, has the last word. But the working papers already out of the Vatican this week and their message of more respect, more openness to the divorced, to the cohabiting, to gay Catholics have exploded in world headlines. Bombshell, earthquake say advocates of change. Heresy, “homoheresy,” say opponents. The bishops say they have to meet people where they are to bring them to the church. This hour On Point: Catholics speak out on the changes on the table right now. / Tom Ashbrook
