German Bishops' President Wants Female "Priests" in Germany
His religion: The theological clarifications on women as sacramental deacons and priests have progressed so far that this could be made possible.
Bishop Bätzing returned to Germany "very satisfied" from the Ex-Synod in Rome. The final document did not negate the ordination of women: "There must be openness to regional solutions for many ecclesial issues."
In Germany, "the theological arguments for the admission of women to sacramental ministries" had already been "compiled" at the German Synod, Monsignor Bätzing said. This text was approved by two-thirds of the German bishops [who also agreed on transgender "priests"].
