To the Editor:
As a practicing Catholic born and raised, I understand the pleas of conservative Catholics to keep the traditions of the church. At the same time, as a millennial living in a big city, I realize that this is simply unrealistic with the social changes that are happening in our society today. And these social changes are a good thing, making our population more open to differences and making us a more accepting community.
The church has no choice but to move with society toward a more liberal approach in teaching. Pope Francis is doing an excellent job keeping both sides of the issue satisfied while slowly moving the church toward a more open approach.

Note from KBJ: This sounds suspiciously like the notion of a "living Constitution."
