The papal Post Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia (the joy of love) has brought the already very famous Vicar of Christ, Pope Francis, into the limelight once more. As usual for Francis, the limelight is more than a theological one, it has far reaching effects on sociological and cultural fabrics; of global societies, even with some political reverberations sometimes1. Amoris Laetitia (AL) is a product of the two synods of Bishops which was held in Rome: the 1st an extraordinary Synod of 2014 and the 2nd, an Ordinary Synod of 2015. The two Synods focused on the theme of marriage and the family.
