Share your views on how difficult it is to practice what's preached. Envelope enclosed,says Pope.
Pope Francis is urging members of the Catholic church to fill in a survey on the Vatican's current teachings regarding contraception, homosexuality and access to communion for the divorced, to see how hard it is to practice what the church preaches in a modern day world.
The unique questionnaire, launched earlier this month, aims to determine how Christians feel about issues such as gay marriage and whether they feel such teachings are practical.Feedback is expected to highlight the difference between Church teachings and the behaviour of its followers.
The survey asks respondents to explain how they feel on the current official total ban on the use of contraceptives, "in any circumstance", the ban on gay or lesbian Catholics having "intimate sexual relationships" and the prohibition on divorced Catholics who have remarried to receive holy communion.
The Vatican survey has 46 questions, including: "In those cases where the Church's teaching is known, is it accepted fully or are there difficulties in putting it into practice? If so, what are they?"
Responses contained within answered questionnaires will help form new Vatican guidance for followers, to be published in 2015.
