Let us pray for the discussion to continue, and for the Spirit to act in due time.  I wonder how long the discussion about male circumcision lasted (Acts 10 to 15).  Now, like then, every conceivable rationalization will be used to delay the inevitable.  Yes, INEVITABLE, because we are no longer under the OLD LAW and, under the NEW LAW, the patriarchal (male-only) priesthood is an anthropological absurdity, a cultural aberration, and a disgusting liturgical abomination.  But the Spirit has already acted: the dogmatic definition on the sacramental priesthood (Trent, 1563) says NOTHING about a masculinity requirement tor receiving the sacrament.  Could it be that the bishops of Trent forgot about this "dogmatic" detail?
