Yo, buckeye.

Research the word “kaphale” and how it points back to the order of creation.

This ain’t rocket surgery.

It’s Greek to me.

No, seriously, it is. And according to the online Greek dictionary it’s a FEMININE noun! Go figure!!

You got me topped.

My only experience with getting banished from a chat board involved posting a link to a YouTube video of Obama saying something that a bunch of Liberals on the board were denying he had ever said.

Got my account canceled quicker than you can say “samizdat”.

Maybe read this article instead. The meaning is completely different, he even states that it implies no change in doctrine.

Notice the word non-ordained, that is kind of important!

But...in the “universe of XPianity” that word [greek: kaphale] is EVIDENTLY appropriate. ne’cest pas?

The problem [for feminists] is that “Order of Creation” defeats feminism at every turn. I’ll leave the Scripture evidence for you, since, WE must be in ^The Logos^ every day. Grab your Bible.

FR-mail if you you would like more from me (a humble Lutheran layman).

You destroy principled and worthy institutions by altering their culture. For example, Obama is destroying the US Military by forcing women, gays and transgenders into the ranks. He is destroying the US Military by implementing suicidal rules of engagement. He is destroying the Military by mandating political correctness.

Pope Francis is destroying the culture of the Catholic Church and thereby is destroying the Church.

Thank you for the article link. Read the article. But it has not changed my assessment. This Pope wants female deacons.

The only reason for a commission is to provide cover for the Pope to approve female deacons. The only reason for female deacons is to start a path for females in the priesthood.

This is part of the death of the Roman Catholic Church by a thousand cuts.

Of course, this is only my opinion. Time will tell where this effort leads.

The church has withstood worse leadership than this in the last 2000 or so years. I don’t like Francis either, I converted to the Catholic Church precisely because of their unwavering stance against abortion, gay whatever, and tradition.
