There are a lot of things that His Holiness can do. Changing the rules of ordination to allow women is not one of them.

Get over yourself, commie puke.

Catholics have the “Women’s Ordination Conference.”

No they don't.

Heretics have the “Women’s Ordination Conference.”

And yet gay men are still repulsed at the idea of having sex with a member of the OPPOSITE sex. Who really discriminates when you get down to it?

Any woman can decide that whe is a priest.

She just can’t claim to be a Roman Catholic Priest.

It isn’t enough that bad people are free to be heretics, the left would make it required that good people be heretics too.

Schisms occur.

In most of the USA, it is not a big deal for anyone to freely change their professed religious affiliation.
I would argue that to remain in false communion with any “church”, is itself an evil act.

I don't agree with those who seem fixated on “changing the rules” for those others whose spiritual beliefs they disagree with.

In the USA, if no group/church exists, one is free to start their own. Or to become a church of one.

Many would deride me for advocating “picking and choosing” what spiritual laws to “believe” to be truth.
In part, I do.
But do it honestly, after prayers and with spiritual humility.
The corruption of many major religions came about because many of those who profess belief, do not believe.

In the USA, a peacefull, loving purge of unbelievers from any established “church” is possible. And probably needed.

Elsewhere? It could be dangerous.
How important do you consider your beliefs?

“Jewish women are restricted in praying at the Western Wall in Jerusalem.”

I thought Jewish women could but had their own section.

“To protect Creation . . .” This is how Pope Francis defined his purpose in his papal installation sermon. “. . . and to protect every man and every woman.” Whether Francis sees it clearly yet or not, that vow can only be fulfilled by gender equality — inside the Catholic Church, and out. And, yes, creation does depends on it.

So Mr. Carroll presumes to know better than the man the Holy Spirit led teh conclave to choose to lead the Catholic faithful on Earth? Why am I not surprised?
