Le Synode d'évêques : image de «l'unité dans l'Église» ou de «la communion qu'est l'Église» ?

Abstract

The Synod of Bishops presents itselfas the image of the Church in its «Unity», as «Communion». But catholic unity is plurality infaith and in its constitution, as well as are plural the authentic catholicity and the true apostolicity. It is in the particular Churches and from them that the one Church exists (Lumen Gentium 23) . And thus should the final document ofthe Synod of Bishops, so as to «promote the good of souls», not propose at the same time «specifie» reports relating to the ecclesiastical regions in the world and a «generai» report induced from these specifie documents ?
