Leo replied:

"First of all, I think it's very important that the unity or division of the church should not revolve around sexual matters. We tend to think that when the church is talking about morality that the only issue of morality is sexual."

"If the synod’s implementation phase is serious about its call to encounter each other across lines of difference, then we must talk openly and honestly about abortion, acknowledge its moral complexities, and listen to the wisdom and lived experiences of the many faithful Catholics who have abortions. The church cannot be open to the workings of the Holy Spirit on some issues while silencing conversation on others."

"The truth is that the church hierarchy’s absolute ban on abortion is only about 150 years old — and we know how old the church is, right? The Catholic church’s so-called 'constant teaching' on abortion has changed significantly throughout the ages. It was not until 1869 that the Catholic church first prohibited abortion at any stage of pregnancy, and the teaching was not codified until 1917."

"In the U.S., 63% of Catholics believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases, and 99% of Catholic women have used birth control at some point in their lives. And considering that 1 in 4 abortion patients is Catholic, there is no denying that abortion is a part of the life of the church."

"The synod’s Final Document, which Pope Francis approved on October 26, 2024, fails to address reproductive rights, effectively preventing discussion on the subject from taking place in the implementation phase.

Statistically speaking, participants in the synod likely have benefited from contraception, had abortions, or needed medical care for pregnancy loss."

"Leo XIV's handling of such issues, or his choice to overlook them, will carry significant implications for his pontificate and the future trajectory of the Catholic Church. ...

Two unresolved and gender-connected issues — Catholic teaching on sexuality and the exclusion of women from ordained ministry — expose the fault lines."

"He can, once and for all, align that teaching with Scripture and enlightened theology, as opposed to the church's deeply ambivalent views of sexuality from the first century, many of which were rooted in Greco-Roman philosophy. Such a shift would transform church doctrine about birth control, same-sex marriage and women's ordination, among other matters."

"Pope Leo XIV begins his papacy with a historic opportunity to close the growing gap between what the church teaches about sex and gender, and the lived experiences and values of a clear majority of U.S. Catholics."
