4.9/5 (27316 ratings)

Description:Ordaining women to the Catholic priesthood surely would enrich and enliven the ministry in ways we haven't seen since Vatican II. This much-needed reform would be like a breath of fresh air for a Church that hasn't been doing so well for a while. Yet Church leaders in Rome have been actively opposing the idea for decades. They say they believe Jesus intended only men to be priests. The truth is, however, Jesus appointed only men to be His apostles because the culture of the day required it. Back then, it was a man's world in every way. But that was 2,000 year ago, 75 to 80 generations. It's something of a mystery why the hierarchy don't see--or won't admit--that their stifling brand of ultra-conservatism on this issue is hurting the Church, unwittingly undermining its ultimate purpose. Is it truly God's will that women be excluded from priestly ministry? Or is it just the will of man clinging to an outmoded cultural tradition? These and related questions are answered in this book in a convincing manner by renowned theologian John Wijngaards, one of the leaders in the worldwide movement to welcome's women in the Catholic priesthood. His voice is one of many that speak with passion; his views are shared in principle by the majority of Catholics in the United States and Europe.[quoted from front flap of bookcover]We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
