And allow women to be priests and say birth control is allowed and encouraged.

This is one i'd like to see. There is no religious reason for not allowing priests to marry. It's all tradition, not dogma. And even then, there are married priests. Growing up we had Father Parker, he was married with 3 children. He was first an Episcopalian and then converted to Catholicism.
