For goodness sake.....sigh....

That women held offices in the Church is something no person denies.  It does not follow that women were priests.  Priesthood is not just an office.

That women and men exercised certain liturgical roles is not in dispute. That women and men lead worship is not in dispute.  What is in dispute is whether they celebrated or con-celebrated a Mass. 

That women were ordained is not in dispute.  Ordination, however, does not and did not imply the reception of Holy Orders.  

That doctrine developed and grew over time is not in dispute.  No one argues that a fully developed theology of Holy Orders came hot of the press in the early Church.  No one argues the Apostles themselves had a fully developed theology of everything.  That is not how things work.  Why this should be troubling is anyone's guess.  That would be like expecting a fully developed presidency in 1776. 

See- scholars write these works, then jump to conclusions.
