"[Pope] Leo further noted that LGBTQ+ questions are polarising, as the Synod revealed. While true, it is troubling when people themselves are framed as 'a problem.' Most LGBTQ+ Catholics seek nothing more than to live ordinary lives of Christian discipleship—no more and no less.
What the language of 'polarisation' often fails to account for is the imbalance of power.

"It can imply that 'both sides' of the controversy enjoy the same level of stability, security, and agency when, in reality, the effects are not symmetrical. Inaction or silence causes very concrete harm on one side: spiritual and physical alienation from the Church and from loved ones, and in too many cases, despair that can lead to death. These realities cannot be brushed away in the name of unity."
