These feminists need to start their own church or maybe join the episcopalians. Don't want 'em in mine.

Indeed. For them, the Catholic Church is the ultimate obstacle to their destroyer's ways. What these critics don't seem to get is the fundamental RELIGIOUS DOGMA comes from GOD to HUMANITY and not the other way around. Thus, if they feel so strongly about pro-choice or what-have-you, they could easily find themselves a church which preaches what they want to hear. That's not what Roman Catholicism or even Evangelical Christianity are about. Either you believe there are fundamental, universal, catholic truths or you believe everything's relative.

These critics should go pound sand. They have NO RIGHT to tell the Church it has to liberalize on moral issues such as birth control, homosexual acts, lesbian priests, etc. They're all for religious freedom as long as the religion is not free to be true to itself!

Some priests can be married even now so long as they were already married when joining seminary or, more likely, when they convert from being married clergy of one Christian faith to Catholicism... so there are already exceptions and accommodations.
