The Vatican will let the priesthood of women?

Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández, the prefect of the Dicastery of religion Science, spoke a fewer days ago about the ordination of the priests of women. He cut the increasing speculation by announcing that the Church does not plan to let this possibility.

The Vatican will let the priesthood of women? With his theoretically brief message denying the anticipation of introducing a deaconate for the beautiful sex, the cardinal left the gate for specified changes in the future. The discussion on the subject was heated shortly after Francis took office as Pope, who created 2 commissions in 2016 and 2020, and in 2019 upon his request was formed Amazonian Synod. no of these assemblies had the desired results so far due to the fact that they had not convinced the head of the Church to bring women into the ranks of the clergy.

However, Francis came to the conclusion that women should be allowed to service within the framework of acolytate and a teacher, or form of lower ordination. Akolita helps deacons and priests to execute Mass or service, prepares the altar, liturgical vessels, and sometimes gives the faithful the Eucharist, while the teacher is engaged in reading the Holy Scriptures, and on Good Friday and Palm Sunday he is allowed to read the Gospel without receiving a blessing from the priest.

A secular institution of ecclesiastical catechists was besides established for both sexes. These changes show a crucial increase in the function of women in the Roman Catholic Church, and many positions in the Vatican administration have been filled.

The Synod of Synodality, convened this year and lasting from 4 to 29 October, became a kind of signpost and milestone. The assembly outside the bishops was attended by priests, consecrated and lay persons of both sexes, and everyone was given full voting rights and was free to express his opinion.

A year ago respective cardinals asked the pope to mention to the statements of John Paul II from “Ordinatio sacerdotalis”, namely the deficiency of authority of the Church to sanctify women as clergymen. The head of the Church replied that the issue of the infallibility of John Paul II in this respect remains the subject of dispute. In addition, the Polish holy Church clearly indicated that women should not service as priests or bishops, not to mention the deacon.

Last year there was besides a Synod about Synodality, and much time was devoted to the priesthood of women. In doubt, Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernández disproved, announcing at the beginning of October a paper of the Dicastery of the Doctrine of religion for 2025, which will not mention the release of women to pastoral service. He stressed the steps already taken, namely the beginning of positions in the Vatican, acolytate and catechate for both sexes, and felt that the issue of the deaconate would be resolved elsewhere due to the fact that the time had not yet come.

The participants of last year's Synod could not straight say that it was impossible to give approval to let anyone only to the lowest degree of ordination, while automatically blocking 2 higher levels of presbytery. This is where the grievance arises, namely, the principles of the sacrament of priesthood would be violated, creating a kind of precedent. If the meaning of 1 sacrament can be questioned, why not challenge the others?

Progressives seem to win not only in political and secular life but besides spiritually. This thesis was confirmed by Vice-Secretary of the Synod of Bishops, Nathalie Becquart, noting that even a fewer or respective years ago in the Church there would not have been a discussion about beginning up to any church positions by women.

Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich, Secretary-General of the Synod on Synodality acknowledged that a female deaconate would origin outrage and a drain from the Church of people with conventional beliefs. In turn another cardinal and president of the Synod of Bishops Mario Grech sees specified a postulate as fulfilling God's intentions.

Many heretic Protestant denominations let the priesthood of women, and it is their experience that modernists cite. However, the Bible speaks clearly about the function of the beautiful sex in the Church. 1 Corinthians 14: 34-36 states: “Women are to keep silent at these gatherings; for they are not permitted to speak, but to be subjected, as the Law commands. And if they desire to learn what to learn, let them ask their husbands at home! For it is not appropriate for a female to talk at a convention. Did the word of God come out of you? Or did it just come to you?”
