If our Church a) believed, and b) acted in a genuinely "counter cultural" manner they would be champions for women's equality -"...in the church and in the world". Our "masters" are whitened sepulcures. Some know it but do nothing.
The answer? Dunno. Even if these "men" admit women it will more likely be extremely "like-selective", limited to "the willing subservience" and on patriarchal terms. Worse - the decision, the legitimization of women would be "declared" by men. A virtual metaphysical contradiction. I suspect that the only road ahead with human dignity of the redeemed, is for growth in the woman priest movement, joined by men to the point that a Christian detente with a diminished institution is the only salvation for our tradition that is worth keeping. Men CANNOT grant equality to women; they can only recognize it. So far, the depth of misogyny rationalized seems too deep to make this possible. Thoughts?
