Just under 400 clerics, religious, and lay Catholics are sitting at round tables in the St. Pope Paul VI Hall at the Vatican this month .
For those of us who are watching the proceedings from home, it’s still just a “meeting on meetings” and interest in it is slowly petering out.
What may be on the agenda, whether the Vatican hierarchy likes it or not, is blowback to Fiducia supplicans, the document released by the Dicastery of the Doctrine of Faith .
Nobody’s worst fears from 2021 and 2022 have been realized.
Instead, the synod seems to have petered out into irrelevance, the way most “meetings on meetings” tend to do.
Even though we have yet to define what “synodality” looks like in the long term, there is plenty that the Synod should probably address in terms of global issues.
