For hundreds of years Catholics prohibited women in this position because they beleive it to be Biblical, so when did it stop being Biblical according to them.

Why not an openly gay Cardinal? If your going to implode anyway, why not go out with a flare?

Why not a lesbian cardinal that performs abortions? This pope is trying to be popular with those who hate God.

Zagano brought up the matter with Cardinal Ratzinger before he became pope. “This is something that is being studied,” he told her. Pope Benedict XVI did not follow through but Pope Francis might.

Yeah, right.

I fail to see the quote where the Pope said that he is considering a woman for Cardinal. Or could it be he never said it, and it's more lies?

I'm thinking an atheist homosexual woman cardinal: Triple Threat!!!

If she works in an abortion clinic, that would be a bonus.

You can think about it. Just don't do it.

Will papal two-step lead to women cardinals?

What is your source for that? Cardinal is not a Biblical position.

“Cardinal Oscar Andres Rodriguez Maradiaga of Honduras said he was backing more posts for women after the Pope named him this month to lead a task force of eight cardinals from around the world to reform the Roman Curia, an alleged hotbed of intrigue, infighting and corruption.”

I don’t know if it’s true but I can see SSPX from my house just in case.

Besides unScripturally referring to as priest with cardinals as well and certain other aspects of Rome, this is speculation without manifest substance, and basically absurd.

But women definitely are an irreplaceable critical part of the church, such as in this work:

But whose position is not to be pastors or official teachers in church services and in authority over men.
