Catholic women have put up with this shit for 2000 years. Doubt even this will change anything.

If female ordination is on the same level as child molesting then it should be ok then.

Since the church hierarchy engage in that all the time.

If ever someone doubted the misogynistic intention of scripture...

The old geezer is raising the level of batshit insanity to yet another level of meaning.

On the other hand one could argue that the sheer incomprehensibility of this surely must indicate the awesome powers of divine inspiration at work here. We humans simply don't understand this, so it must be something supernatural beyond our preposterous little brain capacity.

Yeah, as Badger said, that's apparently about as minor a crime as you can have. Expect to see female archibishops damn soon.

I'm baffled as to why the OP was surprised at this. The Vatican have been doing this for years. It doesn't really bother me; why would any self-respecting woman want to join the ranks of paedophiles anyway?

I'm not surprised they feel that way. I'm surprised that they were honest enough to put it that bluntly.

Well, they actually gave a 'punishment' to ordained women as opposite to the pedos– they still don't have to be reported to the police.
