a “rethink” of religion “in terms of cosmology,” encouraging the sisters to adopt an “evolutionary spirit” and recognize that there is “no God without cosmos.”

“We are on the cusp of an evolutionary breakthrough – one that requires our conscious participation as co-creative agents of love, midwives of the new creation,” Sr. Delio said, suggesting that the “awesome” vocation of the sisters is “to give birth to God.”

“This universe will have its future based on our decisions,” she stated. “When the level of our awareness changes, we start attracting a new reality. Our challenge this day is to begin to name that new reality.”

“For too long we have had a sense of Catholic as sameness,” she said, encouraging the sisters “to live from a new center of love.”

**But even with this change in tone, Carey told CNA, the conference has not signaled a willingness to work with the Vatican in bringing about renewal and reform.**

My opinion....why doesn’t the Vatican (via Sartain) just shut them down?
