text: "We have to listen to people living the faith."
  
  How are you going to do that?  What structures are there for an ongoing exploration and discussion among  priests, bishops, theologians, and lay people?  Is there just going to be a survey every few years on subjects the pope decides need to be discussed world-wide?  Or, are you going to have a way to hear what concerns Catholics on other subjects that may need to be brought to wider attention?
  
  Will you be willing to listen to why Church teaching on sex as an act instead of a part of relationship so misses the mark?  Or how adult, educated people want to be treated as adults, not as children with a "father," much less a shepherd?  Will you and priests really listen to couples, some of whom want children, and some of whom don't but just about all of whom make use of contraceptives as the most reasonable option to planning not just their family life, but their journeys of education, careers, faith, discovery?  
  
  Will you listen to women?
