CWN Editor's Note: A Dutch bishop has complained that the Synod on Synodality has neglected discussion of “Jesus and the salvation of souls” in its deliberations.

Bishop Robertus Mutsaerts, an auxiliary of the ‘s-Hertogenbosch diocese, said of the discussions: “There are no references at all to Church Fathers, saints and theologians, and again, very few to the Bible and Tradition; the Pope mostly cites himself and there is no question of any philosophical thinking at all. Most of the talk is dominated by feelings.”
