Clinging to the dead past of closed-minded, male-arrogated church has no future. Purpose in life is the perpetual quest of human dialog, females and males together truthfully communicating.  Closed society, male-on-male talk, is fruitless - a truth, culture and Church are awakening to, in our time.
Trustful communication of female/ male personae accepts equality of persons, female and male. Vital signs of greening are appearing in the RCC, thanks to Pope Francis's metaphysics, his understanding of 'physics', the human kind, as essentially, NECESSARILY, female/ male.
Word, Light and Love are the metaphysics of rationality, of Truth-quest, the dynamic process of intelligence in search of Godlikeness.
"In God's image is humankind, female/ male."
"Man of the Cloth", INDEED! Been there, done that. Enough already.
