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.”

Association of Roman Catholic Women Priests
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.”

Good Lord, from such as this, deliver us.

I’m curious to see what Marxist group is behind this bunch of misguided souls.
