Ok. Whatevs. That really doesn’t say much about my points. There is historical precedent. The practice fell away. It’s appropriate to establish a commission to see if maybe the practice shouldn’t have been left to whither.
For what? That is the issue.
There is no historical precendent for ordained female deacons. That is my point.
IOW, the ministry undertaken by "deaconesses" did not derive from the ordained male presbyterate. This is important because there is a vocal minority within the Church which is agitating for the ordination of women.
Furthermore, the possibility of ordained female deacons has already been ruled out, most recently by John Paul II and BXVI.
What's to study?
