She is not a real priest and any twisted form of communion she passes out is a fraud and a fake.
Priestess maybe??? How can she be a Priest?
Okay.
I just named myself starting shortstop for the Cleveland Indians.

Is this “first female priest in the Catholic Church” an annual event? Actually I think I remember two of them last year.
And the serpent tempted them “Why, you are not being treated fairly!...”
The following is from their website: http://www.arcwp.org/about.html#apos
“We use equal rites to promote equal rights and justice for women in the church.”
“The unique focus of the Association of Roman Catholic Women Priests is on justice and equality:
We seek equality for women in the church including decision-making and ordination.
We minister with the poor and marginalized.
We live the spiritual and social justice tradition of the church serving inclusive communities of equals.
We actively and openly participate in non-violent movements for peace and justice.”

Statement on Apostolic Succession
“The ordinations of Roman Catholic Women Priests are valid because of our apostolic succession within the Roman Catholic Church. The principal consecrating Roman Catholic male bishop who ordained our first women bishops is a bishop with apostolic succession within the Roman Catholic Church in communion with the pope. Therefore, our bishops validly ordain deacons, priests and bishops. Consequently, all qualified candidates, including baptized ministers and priests from other Christian traditions, who are presented to our bishops for ordination are ordained by the laying on of hands into apostolic succession in the Roman Catholic Church.”
If they’re going to play dress up and pretend to be Catholic priests, the very least they could do is learn how to wear the vestments right.
Pretending that this ordination ceremony produced a Catholic priest is like pretending that a gay “wedding” ceremony produces a marriage. Make-believe is a fun game for preschoolers, but there comes a time when adults put away childish things.
How many faithful “Catholics” will attend Masses held by their new priestess?
