| What is ‘the universal ordinary magisterium’ in plain language? | ||
| That women
cannot be ordained priests has been set forth infallibly by the ordinary and
universal Magisterium. Rome's texts in full! |
 |
Rome has
not established infallible teaching by the ordinary universal magisterium on
women priests because the five conditions for
infallibility have not been fulfilled. Key theologians all over the world have rejected Rome’s statement on ‘infallibility’ in this matter. The Pope’s failure to adequately consult the faithful in general and theologians in particular as required by Vatican II, is the main reason for Rome’s mistaken judgment. It is a duty for all who are competent in these matters to publicly speak out. |
| The
Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women and
this judgment is to be definitively held by all the Church's faithful. Rome's texts in full! |
|
The
definity of Rome’s teaching in this matter has not been resolved. Read:
Theologians and
the Maristerium by Richard A. McCormick. Roman authorities, including Popes, have made similar serious misjudgments in the past. The present Roman authorities have not understood the precious new values of our own time nor the need of a more democratic way of governing the Church. |
