Yes, I'm sure the Sanhedrin and Papal Inquisition thought that way too. The facts are is that the GC decided to go one way due to third world influence despite the fact that the TOSC that the decision was based on was at best, inconclusive. Unions that were ordaining women were doing so BEFORE the official vote. The GC should have realized that local unions have authority to enact policy that fits their geographical area and culture. Now the GC due it's insistence on strict adherence to dogmatic policy has painted themselves into a corner and instead of backing down, insist on following through. It is a power struggle, nothing more. This is Medieval Catholicism and Pharaseeism at its core.
