There is a ‘movement’ in the Catholic Church for female ordination. Like I tell the silly people who bring up this insanity:
1) the RCC is 2012 years old and never once ordained a woman as a priest, they wouldn't bend to the wills of Martin Luther & Henry VIII, I am positive they will not bend for you.

2) If the RCC decides to ordain women as priests they can forget about myself and about 80% of all Men that are practicing Catholics from continuing to do so. I, and many others, are sick and tired enough of the ‘alter girls’ and female Eucharistic ministers. Never needed them when the Church was full to bursting in the past,why are they needed when it is half empty?

Men get enough ‘feminine instruction’ in every day life from their wives, mothers and now their bosses at work. They will simply not attend or participate in a female dominated religion.

It won’t happen. The Pope has made it clear that there can be no women priests in the Catholic Church. I don’t see any way that such a formal pronouncement could be reversed.
