I believe we disagree with the why WOC didn't make their treatment more widely known-I think they were treated just like Jamie says above but WOC doesn't like to make too many waves lately.  It doesn't want to upset the permanent deacon apple cart rolling thru Rome right now.  

Women being made Perm. Deacons will not represent any kind of equality since Deacons are ordained to do what many lay people already do worldwide & they have no vote or voice in any synods & cannot rise to the higher ordained states of priests, bishop, cardinal or pope. 

I wish WOC would get back on track and remember its main goal is equal ordination & this means letting the decoys and fake versions of equality being offered to women be rejected for reasons of integrity of cause, and human justice. 

Laity will fight for women more if they know how badly they are being treated when protesting for Justice in our church.  How many know that some of these women have been arrested many times in Rome in the past?
