There have been women trying to be ordained in the Catholic church for, I think, decades.
FOIA
Ya know; 37 years ago; another person who had chosen to be a MORMON was saying...
It will be a coldday in HeLL when BLACKS are allowed into the LDS priesthood!
And here we keeping hearing mormon s are so nice, and very tolerant.
This need to somehow "protect the priesthood" is where the Mormon church turns the word "priest" 100% upside down.
When you read the Bible, a "priest" was one who represented the people before God (intercession). The "prophet" was one who represented God before the people.
Mormon leaders constantly claim the priesthood represents God before the people, but that is pure Biblical distortion.
Peter taught about the priesthood of all believers (1 Peter 2:4-9) -- as did John (Rev. 1:5-6).
They were trying to get in a session reserved for members of the priesthood, which includes most males in the church who are 12 and older.

Help, the Mormon priesthood has caused the constitution to hang by a thread...
