Unbelievable. We complain about feminazis, about leftists claiming our young girls and twisting them, and they want to ban something that keeps at least some of them grounded?

It does not keep young women orthodox.

The introduction of altar girls was engineered by the women's ordination movement, which is a radical feminist movement.

I was raised Catholic, and this makes my blood boil.

This means that you were poorly catechized.

While this is true, it is also true that banning them will not keep them Catholic. And it will not encourage them to raise their children Catholic.

"It does not keep young women orthodox.."

Interesting choice of words.

Orthodox churches do not have women/girl altar servers. Never have, never will. In the Orthodox church, women are not allowed in the altar (behind the iconostasis).
