So the decision is all up to MEN, mere mortals?

The irony is beyond comprehension.

You're questioning the decision to grant someone church membership when your very own priests, also MEN, mere mortals, are claimed to have the power to send someone to hell by not remitting their sin?

You all seem to have no problem with THAT kind of power in the hands of men, and yet criticize about simple church membership?

The hypocrisy is staggering.

Well, the priests are part of the One True Church (TM), don’tcha know. So that means that they’re special.

In an RCIA class, the adults in the class make their own decisions about whether to join the Catholic Church. It is totally their choice.

Other men or women have nothing to do with their decision other than offering further education.
