The NY Times reports in an article titled "Vatican Asserts Rule That Bars Female Priests" that the Vatican said that ordaining women as priests is still a big No-No, and warned that anyone involved in the ordination of women would be automatically excommunicated. Whew-forget about world hunger or peace-ordaining women as priests is dreadful? If they can get rid of purgatory-why can't they ordain female priests?http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/31/world/europe/31vatican.html?_r=2&ref=europe&oref=slogin&oref=sloginThe Women's Ordination Conference said in their press release that as women are the backbone of Catholic parishes-it is outrageous that women can't be ordained as priests. They pointed out it's rather hypocritical to kick people around who are performing good works; fighting injustices and serving their communities. Jesus seemed to think more highly of women than the Vatican: http://www.womensordination.org/pages/press_pages/Press5-30-08.html
