"Perfect pitch"?   6:20 PM; 11/1/2016
Is the latest word from Pope Francis that ordination to the priesthood IS CLOSED TO WOMEN in tune with the belief of the people? Or, was my ear out of tune to what it heard? 
Time will tell. I can't help but feel that the new male exclusive priesthood statement will not be well received by the people.
Women are not second class! Especially (!) when it comes to religion. It seems inevitable that the Roman Catholic Church will suffer even more attrition in days to come.
Isn't this negative affirmation at this moment a boulder blocking the way of Lutheran/ Catholic concordance?
