Dublin World Meeting of Families censors video of Bishop David G. O'Connell

Bishop David G. O’Connell’s comments censored
by World Meeting of Families

The very last contribution on the amoris.ie website in Clip 1, Session One “The Reality of Family Life Today” was by Bishop David G. O’Connell, Auxiliary Bishop of Los Angeles. A Cork man and graduate of All Hallows College in Dublin, Bishop O’Connell has served in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles since 1979.
In his comments he included the following remarks:

“Pope Francis, he get’s it!
He gets it that our society has changed so much in the last couple of generations.
We have all sorts of configurations of families now,
• Whether it’s just the traditional family of mum & dad together
• Or it’s now mum on her own or dad on his own
• Or a gay couple raising children
• Or people in second marriages.
No matter what the configuration of the family is, the call is still to adults to think about how to provide the best, most loving, faithful environment for children possible.”

But after a short period on the amoris.ie website Bishop O'Connell's video was edited with the last one minute being deleted. Thus his message that Pope Francis gets it was deleted and the World meeting of Families does NOT get it.
