Besides that, the functions proposed by Kasper have de facto already been introduced years ago. However, up to this day they are called "extraordinary." It is high-time to finally abolish them instead of making them "ordinary".
Kasper explained to LifeSiteNews.com (July 3) that the Church could provide women with a “non-sacramental, liturgical blessing”. He compared this to the blessing bestowed upon abbesses [or on homosexuals on Saint Valentine's day?].
In the early days of the ongoing post-conciliar nightmare, in 1972, the four minor orders - acolyte, exorcist, lector and porter - were rebranded “ministries.”
