The Vatican's doctrinal note "Una Caro" (November 25, 2025) reaffirms monogamy as the fundamental principle of marriage, in the face of the challenges posed by polyamory and polygamy. Published on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, it emphasizes the importance of an exclusive, intimate, and egalitarian union between two people, protecting the dignity of each, especially that of women. The document draws on biblical and traditional doctrinal references to defend marital exclusivity as the basis for a faithful, balanced, and respectful relationship.

A document from the German Bishops' Conference, published in October 2025, proposes an open and respectful approach to supporting LGBT+ students in Catholic schools. This initiative has sparked a heated controversy among bishops, who are divided between adapting to societal realities and defending traditional doctrine. The debate reflects the tensions within the German "Synodal Path" and raises important questions for education, pastoral care, and the future of the Catholic Church in Germany.
