Why is the term "spiritual leader" limited to Church hierarchy who are so confused about applying rules? 

Maybe some of these decisions should not be clergy-driven applications of the rule book but of the prayerful "spiritually leading" hearts, minds, and consciences of those involved. 

To say the umpires are confused about applying the infield fly rule is to diminish and demean the women and men directly called to exercise their consciences in the best interests of love, loving, mercy, and their families. 

Where is the TRUST? To defer to canons is to relinquish responsibility. To declare this a legal issue is to show ignorance of the many other issues at play. 

To those, like the Dubia Cardinals, who  sternly bemoan the Pope's lack of clarity and who demand from him  ambiguity-free rulings, I say: "Welcome to marriage and family life. To pain. To love. To discernment. To nuance. To prudential judgment. To kids. To weighing human-humane costs and benefits. Not so easy is it?"
