I've always wondered why Charlie Manson would be a fundamentally more qualified candidate for the clergy than Mother Theresa would have been.

Mother Theresa would have told you that she couldn’t be a priest. Maybe you should just go with that.

well, The Church basically follows Christ’s precedence. Christ did not have female apostles, even though the most religious and the most faithful followers of His were women. It’s strange for some that HE had no apostles, yet the first to see the empty tomb and the ones at the foot of the Cross were women. I see that as saying that women are holier than men in general and yet their role is different — equal but different from the men in the clergy.
