I am a U.S. Catholic Sister who lived through the recent episode of “investigations” by the Vatican offices.
There is no way I would want to be an ordained clergy person and join the “men’s club” ! It’s a huge problem to me that “ordination” is tied to governance and decision-making. Just look at all the celibate male red hats doing all the decision-making for married people at the Synod on the Family ! What’s wrong with this picture? Way too much “power” is tied to ordination. It’s not the way of Jesus Christ.
