Faculty from the theology department will engage in a forum-style discussion on the outcomes and implications of the 2015 Synod on the Family on Thursday, November 12, at 7:30 p.m., in Shiley Hall Room 301. Many complex issues are being addressed by the Synod, including the status of divorced and remarried Catholics and that of homosexual members of the Church; artificial birth control in married life; issues of economic justice and immigration; as well as other topics pertaining to family life situations in a wide variety of cultural settings in the contemporary world. Starting with the historical context of the Synod, the forum will address the complex ethical issues and problems pertaining to these topics.
