Tina Beattie on Synod: "Francis's Opportunity to Show That He Is Really Serious . . . About Giving Women a More Significant Role, and I Don't Think He's Delivered on It"

Catholic theologian Tina Beattie, commenting to Catholic Women Speak Network on the him-nod synod on the family now taking place in Rome:

This was Francis' opportunity to show that he really is serious when he talks about giving women a more significant role (in the church) and I don’t think he's delivered on it.
