So they started their own branch of the club and there are now 208 women priests worldwide, following Saturday's ordination.

One was the gender-neutral liturgy. The word Lord was absent. God was not exclusively called Father, but Creator God, Creator Spirit and Life-Giving Mother, Gentle Father. Christ's disciples, a heavily male-oriented word, were described as friends.

Didn't a FRoman Catholic just push this boundary in a discussion, is Jesus is a male or not?

The Catholic Church: 500,000 denominations all under one roof.

You're Orthodox IIRC. What's it like having schismatic navel lint?

The old coopt rather than build structure. The left’s and the lazy person’s way. Thus was it always.

These harpies are worse than the trans-whatever psychos. Calling yourself something does not make you that thing. There are plenty of other cults out there in which they can live out this fantasy, but they are most certainly not Catholic.

"Those women chose ex-communication by Rome, which, simply put, is like leaving a club you were never allowed to join."

Oh, they were invited. With open arms by the shed blood of the spotless Lamb. "They went out from us, but they were not of us; for it they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us."
1 John 2:19

What I’m curious about is, who pays the salaries for these people. Are these full time jobs paid for by the weekly donations of real congregations that pack into pews every Sunday? Do these church’s have their own buildings? It’s hard to believe this goddess/priestess stuff draws much of a crowd on a weekly basis. And yet they look like they’re wearing fancy duds. The building is impressive. The money isn’t coming from the Catholic church and the building isn’t a Catholic church, so what demonination is this really? Who funds this?

You are reinforcing my point. I am NOT Catholic (Roman anyways) and I am waaaay more Catholic than these overgrown children playing dress up.

Looks like a good research topic. I’m guessing there’s a satanist congregation somewhere funding an evangelist crusade.

You’re simply reinforcing his point.

Heretics. They really go out of their way to mistranslate the original Greek and Vulgate Latin translation.

The headline is misleading. These ladies are neither Catholic nor priests. I will assume they’re women, although these days, who knows?

Ah, these many beliefs inside the Roman demonination!

Such variety.
