text: Several years ago there was a Peanuts cartoon in which the question was raised, 'Why didn't Jesus have a dog?'  After several frames of thoughtful reflection, the last frame revealed the weighty conclusion, 'Because then all his Apostles would have wanted one.  This simple remark highlights the absurdity of Rome's stance that 'If Jesus had ordained women priests, then we would have women priests'.  What a mindless, inane argument.  How can a Pope, for example, justify having a 'Popemobile?'  Jesus never had one.  He rode on the back of a donkey; according to that fallacious argument, the Pope should be content on riding on the back of a donkey.  Jesus never visited America; how can a Pope justify so doing?  Would it not have been wiser for Francis just to have kept his mouth shut, especially as a show of respect for the Archbishop whom he had recently embraced?
