A woman can be a Priest?

Question

If men and woman are equal why a women can't be a Catholic Priest?

Answer 1

Women can be Priest , just like, women can be President. Their intelligence and mentality can be equal to men.

Rules can be changed.

Answer 2

Well, she should be able to be a priestess, but who said men and woman are equal? MOREOVER

Even if they're equal, we have to determine what we mean by equal. If we mean equal as in identical (as in 2 = 2) then that's just wrong, because women have women parts. So when we say equal, we mean equally X, where X is something. So perhaps women fulfill one role, and men fulfill another role, and those roles are equally important.

Or maybe they're not equal, and it's all just a pack of lies!

Answer 3

The Catechism of the Catholic Church states:

The Lord Jesus chose men to form the college of the twelve apostles, and the apostles did the same when they chose collaborators to succeed them in their ministry.

The Church recognizes herself to be bound by this choice made by the Lord himself. For this reason the ordination of women is not possible.

With love in Christ.

Answer 4

Constantine, the culture of the times, and politics got in the way of the role of women back in the day. The Catholic church, despite the precedent of leadership roles of women in the early Church, decided it was improper.

Answer 5

But there should be a new sexy dress code for them. Catholics can find a sharp increase in the number of church going people.

Answer 6

It's all about TRADITION. It never was when Jesus started His Church, so it never will be. Plain and simple. If He wanted it that way, He'd have started it that way.
