      The Vatican recognized that some bishops reject the blessings, "for the moment," but added that "we all need to grow equally in the conviction that: nonritualized blessings are not a consecration of the person nor of the couple who receives them, they are not a justification of all their actions, and they are not an endorsement of the life that they lead."
