Progressive Catholicism - How is it reconciled?
The standard teachings of the Catholic Church are pretty firm when it comes to things like same-sex marriage, contraception and abortion. However, there's also a pretty sizable number of progressive Catholics who tend to be a little "softer" on these issues than Church leadership tends to be.
As someone who tends to be socially liberal, I'd like to hear the thoughts of progressive Catholics on these topics (or anything else along similar lines). How do you reconcile the apparent conflict (either you personally or possibly even your local parish)?

There is no such thing as Progressive Catholicism. There is one Catholic Church, and revealed divine truth, that cannot change.
There are cafeteria Catholics, who pick and choose which teachings they will follow and which ones they won't. This is not progressive, this is pride. Cafeteria Catholics decide that they will pass judgement on God, deciding which of his commandments are worthy and which are out dated, or just too hard to do.
Accepting secular or popular reasoning over Church teaching, is to deny God's authority.

progress towards imphasis on acting in love because the people can not change God but we can change to be like God in action towards others. Less focus on the rules and more focus on serving.
I am progressive as the pope but I progress to God and not to change the church that has followed what the apostles taught. If the teachings are wrong then the apostles are wrong because they were against homosexual union as well.

Not a progressive Catholic, so is my church. The priest sermon that living together without marriage is a SIN.

I think what the Pope is doing in particular is "reaching out to the liberals" but many mistake it as him being a liberal himself. And he is not. He is the Pope.
The Pope is trying to draw a bridge between people with differences to get us all on the same field because we are all sinners at the end of the day.
