USA Today headlined it this way:
Pope: Women will be banned from priesthood forever
Stupidly worded headline. Saying women are "banned" implies that women were once priests but can no longer be, or that women COULD be priests but the Pope doesn't prefer that.
The fact is that women never were priests, and COULD never be priests.
It's like a headline saying, "Men banned from being unicorns forever."
Sez who? The Pope sez who!

They never were eligible. Just like husbands cannot be wives, and moms cannot be dads.

Oh heck.. I am immmediately withdrawing my little post of a few seconds ago
it was just a stray thought about how we are all being subjected to all of these new-fangled “controversies” (especially since Obama got into our WH)
but I am NOT up to any flames from anyone who might not be quite on the same wavelength as my cracked sense of humor...
so I withdraw it, anyone thinking of flaming me can go quench hisself please, or whatever.
thanks.

Nope. Mentally ill, gender-disoriented people are disqualified too.

Dorcas had the first church in her home; she read Paul’s letters and then they sang Psalms. It’s in Acts.

Absolutely true, every word your just wrote. I've "had church" in my house, read Paul's letters, and sung Psalms, too.
You could, too. It doesn't make either one of us (or Dorcas) a priest.
Hope it makes us saints!
