Blinded by feminism's empty promises, these women denigrate apostolic succession. I find it also telling that none of the terms; Ordination, Priest, Bishop, etc. were captured in " " (quotation marks) or otherwise designated as being alleged by the Post Dispatch. Its telling, but not in any way surprising from that liberal rag which is no friend to the Church or to Archbishop Raymond Burke. None of these or other true Catholoc eccslesiastical terms applies to this abomination. What a sad day indeed.

It's a side show. The Montanists did similar stuff back in the 200s.

And how many Montanists live in your parish nowadays?

Isn’t the Central Reform bunch a secular front for strictly nominal Jewry?
Maybe they should more properly join the Ethical Society.

"two women and the approximately 600 people who came to cheer them on, history was made Sunday in St. Louis as the two became the first women ever in the city to be ordained as Catholic priests"

This is not a recognized Ordination at all.

Has as much value as the Nobel Peace Prize, I'd say......

This also says a lot about the state of journalism today. When a transvestite is referred to by the pronoun of his or her pretend gender, when babies are referred to as fetuses, and when women who participate in a sham ceremony are termed priests, truth has no meaning in journalism anymore.

Oh, and here’s a shock- the “Catholic Action Network” was “helpful”.

I do think this is sad too. It’s pretty much a bid for attention. Seriously, would anyone have attended if there wasn’t a press release?

I was very disappointed that the Jewish temple permitted this. The Archbishop did appeal to a local Jewish council of some sort, but they pointed out that they had no jurisdiction over individual temples or synagogues, although they did issue a statement regretting the event.

Congratulations to the high priestesses of the Roaming Katholic Church.

but the church and others in the interfaith community were upset that the Central Reform Congregation, in the Central West End, hosted the event

As a Jew I am upset too. Reform Deformed JINOs should not be permitted to call themselves "Jews". They are Socialists and their dogma is Secular Humanism.

"There's been no ordination of Roman Catholic priests. In fact, there has been a profaning of something Roman Catholics believe is very sacred."

And that's really the whole point of this exercise, isn't it?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Pope acting on God's command, makes the rules for the Catholic church. If he says that they aren't catholic priests, then they aren't catholic priests.

Getting Catholics upset is the purpose of the media even printing this article. This ceremony has less relevance than the appointment of a new city dog catcher. But the papers print this stuff because it stirs up controversy and upsets decent people.

Apparently the scumbag media whores were successful yet again.

No way should females be priests.

We would not ever attend a Church with a female pastor. Guess we are just old fashioned.

Roman Catholic Womenpriests, which defines itself "as an international initiative within the Roman Catholic Church."

A long definition for "a bunch of nobodies with zero standing and even less influence."

OK so I am not a Catholic, and I do NOT know anything about this event, however, what am I suppose to think about the prophecy recorded in Joel 2:28-32 to occur and quoted in Acts 2:17???

Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that *I* will pour out My spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your *DAUGHTERS* shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in *THOSE DAYS* will I pour out My spirit.

"... as an international heretical division from the Roman Catholic Church." There ... all fixed.
