Encouraging Dissent - CAN at it again...

The most recent web page of the local group "Catholic Action Network" calles for a "Lay Synod" in May - a gathering which would presumably include the area's local dissenters, heretics, and schismatics. What a way to spend a "First Saturday" after Holy Mass - [hint, hint]...

Lay Synod- "A Time for Courage"

Saturday, May 3rd
9:00 am-3:30 pm
Location: TBA

CAN is calling for a Lay Synod. Catholics from throughout St. Louis are invited to come and discuss our Church. We will look at the history of the church and the ways in which leaderhip of the church has developed. In this light we will recognize the vital leadership role of the laity. Lena Woltering will be giving the keynote address.

Please join us- RSVP by April 27th by e-mailing can@catholicactionnetwork.org
This ought to be good...though, I can't figure out what is really meant by the phrase "a time for courage." Does it mean "courage" to stand up against the ways of the world, or the "arrogance" and lack of courage in opposing the Church and standing with Satan?
