“VATICAN CITY - The Vatican insisted Friday that it is properly following Christian tradition by excluding females from the priesthood as it issued a new warning that women taking part in ordinations will be excommunicated.
The move dashed the hopes both of women seeking to be priests and of Catholics who see that as an option for a church struggling to recruit men.”
I don’t find this surprising, at all. I do, however, see a split from the church and a new Roman Catholic denomination much more of a possiblity now.
