All the protests in the world cannot change the fact that Jesus chose only men.
Apparently Mary's obedience to God doesn't really resonate with them. How utterly sad.
How do we know that there will be no women in heaven?
The Bible say's there will be quiet in heaven for about a half an hour.
Cultural catholics who reject our Lord's invitation.
Penis envy is a terrible thing.
Its all about what they want, and not what God has intended. Are they not to be servants of the Lord? How arrogant.
These are not happy people. They miss entirely the message of the Gospels. We are to serve God and others, not ourselves.
“Apparently Mary’s obedience to God doesn’t really resonate with them. How utterly sad.”
Indeed! Mary’s example was one of complete surrender to God’s will. It was an example of SERVICE.
The example of these radical feminists is one of lust for POWER. Period.
Pray for them.
A Sunday Without Women?
Who chose the day? The NFL??
If the women come back on Monday and do the dishes and the laundry and vacuuming and the mopping and pay the bills, nobody will learn anything.
Ooops! *facepalm*
The women say they’re not going to go to Mass, not that they won’t do the chores. Idiots. If they went to Mass *instead* of cleaning up ...
Why would any woman want to thrust that extra burden on us?
1. Drink more coffee.
2. Then re-post.
3. ;-)
She is advising women to attend mass outside the archdiocese, right? She’s not? I’m shocked. /s
“Indeed! Mary’s example was one of complete surrender to God’s will. It was an example of SERVICE.”
In our parish, and in every one I have ever been a member of, the priest is the lowliest servant of all. His time is never his own. Our priests are always serving their flocks, to the point of exhaustion. These wonem seem to be too self-centered to be good servants, as a priest should be.
I am a lifelong Catholic, a lay Carmenlite, and I came of age during the height of the Women’s Liberation mavement. However, this kind of thing really frosts my cookies.
As a female, my Church wants me to be a SAINT. Surely that is a goal that is eternal, reaching far past this short life and the perceived “opression” to which I have been blissfully unaware in my 50-plus years as a Catholic woman.
I’ve talked to many women who bemoan the fact that they can have no “power” in the Church. That is the word that is constantly invoked. They have no wish to SERVE. To a woman, they only want to be ordained because someone told them they couldn’t. I have never spoken to one who said they had a longing to consecrate the host or help penitents...only that they wanted to challenge the power structure.
WHy not concentrate on becoming a saint? There are female Doctors of the Church; if your talents are so impressive, why not be content to work towards an ETERNAL reward? The Church has always honored women, as equal members in the community of saints.
Life is short! Why pick at something that is so transitory?
Sorry for the rant. I just question how much these women know about their faith if they believe they are second place in the Church.
These women are CINOs — Catholics in Name Only.
There was no sign of them at Mass last night at my Oregon Church.
I’ll let you know later today. BTW, our Bishops has spoken out against this group.
I think the writer got a little confused
“His Imminence”??
**There was no sign of them** — women boycotters — at Mass last night at my Oregon Church. No signs, no boycott line, etc.
And there were lots of women in church. I don’t think the message got through. LOL!
Don't you know that real womanhood is rebellion against the oppressive Male Authority!
I mean think if Our Lady would have obeyed she could have been put through the Heartache of raising a Child! And that child could have been murdered before her eyes, so it is much better not to have children!!!(Hope I don't need a /SARC tag Lol)
