@John A Cassani Because they WILL BE DISRUPTIVE. I should know. At the theology school I attended women were allowed to "audit' pastoral formation classes for men studying for the priesthood, but were always belligerent that they were denied Holy Orders by an oppressive patriarchal Church. It got so bad that one professor who was a member of a religious community had extracurricular sessions in his nearby monastery just to get away from those gals. Of course, he was reported to the administration for sexist behavior.

@Father Karl A Claver you must have the counsel of really good priests. Sadly, some I have come in contact with just look at abortion as a mild tragedy - i.e. that's it's unfortunate that a woman would be forced to resort to it and we need to show them support and accompany them in their choice. And that's the best opinion. I know one priest who was visibly angry when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. He said that he thought we were beyond that and need to stop obsessing over abortion!! Taking his cues from Francis.

From Wikipedia: "Tommy Robinson, is a British anti-Islam campaigner, convicted criminal, and one of the UK’s most prominent far-right activists. He was a political advisor to former UK Independence Party." Don't let that "convicted criminal" line phase you. He's just another man who the globalist left abhor. All charges seem to revolve around passport violations and saying mean things in public and on social media.

I hear you. I was in middle school in the 60s and I vividly remember being excited about getting to learn Latin the next year. I even recall helping one of the teachers shelve Wheelock's Latin Grammar the last day of school knowing I'd be taking the class in the fall. Over the summer, the school board canceled the course and replaced it with something stupid like "creative writing" where students wrote plays & skits.

Quote from article: "It is whispered that Francis himself privately revels in this prospect [the Church splitting], viewing it as a way to rid the Church of its sexual obsessions and return it to a grassroots approach that puts power in the hands of local priests. Certainly, in his efforts to please everyone, he has given up on trying to impose a cohesive, universal morality. At this point, if the Germans or others do opt to split irreversibly with Rome, who is Pope Francis, of all people, to judge?" Interesting that the liberals at Politico like leftists elsewhere believe Francis to be "trying to please both sides" and NOT bringing the revolution fast enough!
