text: Small matter of practice. Retired or separated priests already do these weddings. My brother and his husband had one. Catholicism did not suddenly cease to exist. Gay marriage is a small issue and only gays, reformers and trads care. Most don't. Of course, almost every Catholic family has a gay brother, sister, cousin. Change will come, just as it has for divorced and remarried Catholics, whose marriages have been blessed in the rectory after they have lasted a bit. This started way before Amoris. Amoris just ratified the practice.
