8. considering it took them a few hundred years
to "officially" conceed that the earth revolves around the sun... I don't really expect any serious discussions with the Catholic hierarchy on ordaining women

I remember the "flap" over having mass in "native languages" -- my grandfather was very upset over that -- it meant he had to pay attention and participate instead of saying his beads..

my religious up bringing was a mish-mash between the lutheran church and catholic church. My father was raised lutheran (but now claims he's atheist), my mom was catholic (now lapsed) -- so church going was split between the two. At home we were taught it was all the same god, so it didn't matter which church we attended.

Currently, I am NOT affiliated with any church/religion.

Meanwhile -- if they ordain women -- next thing ya know they'll be ordaining pedophiles... (or box turtles)
sorry couldn't resist the jab...
