While I have a soft spot for Pope Francis, I think he did irreparable damage to the church and to women with his statement of women in the priesthood.  Women, who make up the majority of Mass attendees and contribute most of the money, do not see themselves as inferior.  Each attempt that the hierarchy and defenders of the all-male priesthood make to defend their position while insulting us with their euphemisms is breathtaking.  They have offered us no good reason because there is no good reason.
