Nice Blog… As I pointed out in the prev. post…there is an **organized agenda…**Karl Keating(A Catholic Pau Revere) discusses this in “wolves in sheeps clothing”.
Thanks,
I don’t know that you’ll get very far, for a couple of reasons.
Someone on EWTN once said, “The gates of hell will not prevail” apllies to the universal Church(as a remnant) it’s not a guarantee the the Church in America will always be healthy.
You see, for those who struggle with peace on this issue (and for their family and pastoral ministers), it’s not so “Black and White” after all. I believe that the high majority of people who advocate for women’s ordination are not out to destroy the church. They are just people who do listen to God for their vocation, and in their discernment process have discovered that God could call women to priesthood through a similar journey of discernment.
I think its a pretty big stretch to call links to a few heretical websites containing flimsy evidence “scholarly research.” It’s not exactly clear from what evidence we have that these deaconessees were actually held by the early Church to be members of the ordained diaconate established by Christ. Some historians take they viewpoint that they were part of the ordained diaconate, some believe they had their own ministry, created by the Church comparable to lector or acolyte, which was not part of Holy Orders. But for Catholics, its pretty simple:
Tell her to take it up with Jesus Christ.
I have heard this, from the mouth of my very own bishop (who is really good, btw). That’s how his roundabout vocation story started. He really wanted to be like the nuns he admired growing up, and didn’t really feel called to priesthood, but that’s what you were supposed to do if you were a guy who wanted to serve the church, so he entered the seminary. He was sent to Conception Abbey Seminary, where he found he liked the life of the monks (the male nuns he had never seen) more than the diocesan priesthood he was being educated for. So he entered there, and out of obedience he became a priest, and again out of obedience accepted his monastery’s election to abbot, and then finally, Rome’s call to make him a bishop.
Smart aleck, she probably does daily at Mass.
Im glad you have enough decency to not label yourself Catholic in your profile.Disintegrating, Painful and Damaging-Your’re right. That’s why the Pope has said that we are not even to debate this further.(As for me, Rome has spoken and Im done).
Sorry. I’ve never looked at my profile. We’ll have to fix that.
I may be a smart aleck, but at least I’m not a heretic.
I apologize if my responses have been indecent, but the more and more I think about it they only way to deal with manifest heresy is to call it out for what it is, and state the obvious: Our Lord called only men to Holy Orders, as plainly recorded in Scripture.
