Women and the Catholic priesthood

I implore Ms Mould not to weep for me. I am a dynamic, Catholic woman, first-class citizen of the Church and world. I do not want to be a woman priest, I don't want her to be a woman priest and I don't want any women priests. I want what the Holy Father wants.

Unlike Ms Mould, me and the rest of the members of the Catholic Church, the Pope is divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit to lead the Church.

Women ministers of the Eucharist have taken over the altar, the male ministers having disappeared into the land where male ministers of the Eucharist, who are afraid of feminists, go. I have no doubt that if women became priests this land would be crowded with priests overwhelmed by feminists.
