Not so sure. The CC in the US is nearly forty times the size of the EC in the US, which, after all, is a small Protestant Church -- "Protestant" as its legal title states ("The Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States") -- with an entirely different polity from the CC. Any Protestant church community, of course, can pull it off, can pull off having women admitted to ministry, priesthood. The Methodists were successful earlier as were other Protestant communities, including the Episcopal Church. But short of an ecumenical Church Council (a Vatican III), the diverse, huge, 1.2 billion church community -- with 23 Eastern Catholic Churches (tied to Orthodox practice) -- could never pull it off like you suggest, like your little Protestant Episcopal parish did. Only global Church Councils prevail in Catholicism owing to its size, its first millennial history and tradition (shared with Orthodoxy) and its Eastern ecclesial diversity.
