I'm listening to a news broadcast on the fact that women are not able to be priests in the Catholic church. I can remember asking my parents if I could be a priest when I was little. Unfortunately, I am female. Religiously, right and wrong in this issue is blurred. However, personally, if I could have a religious calling to priesthood AND be a married female...I would be. My personal feelings have little impact in the long run. Buddhism has nuns. Protestants have married preachers that are both male and female. Catholicism has nuns, but those nuns are seen as secondary to the priests. Is this a medieval mindset? or true doctrine? Life changes, society evolves. Or at least it should.
BTW? Whatever happened to Mary? (The following is a song from the movie Stigmata, which I love.)
