The Final Synod Document on the Family with the Tally of Votes -

If you haven't read the final document from the Extraordinary Synod on the ''Family'' and noted the vote tally on each paragraph you can find it here in English. Every paragraph received a majority vote of the ''Synod Fathers''. The three controversial paragraphs did not receive the necessary 2/3rd vote, but .. Francis called for them to be included in the final document along with the vote numbers.

Why? I've been trying to figure out what possible purpose could be served except to send the message that the question is still open on whether the divorced and remarried without annulment can receive Communion as well as the controversial items relating to homosexuality and cohabitation. I can't help thinking that (Francis) called for the vote tallies because it allowed Kasper and co. to publicly proclaim that the majority of cardinals favored those paragraphs and to imply that change is just a question of time. What other construction can be put on that "unprecedented" action? Can anyone think of one? I've been wracking my brain trying to come up with an alternative other than the continued manipulation of the Synod and its outcome.

What do you think? What next?
