text: Someone asked if there is one Catholic leader willing to stand up and either metaphorically or actually nail the theses on the Vatican door which would indicate leadership and vision. My response is to look at the child sex abuse: how many bishops around the world have pursued the issue? Very, very few. And note the number of "memoirs" written by retired priests saying they knew about abuse for decades. . .but of course they didn't speak out while on "active duty." No, I believe it will take a small group of lay people to challenge, pray and communicate with the pastoral leadership until a "light bulb" flashes (or you might say the Holy Spirit intervenes!) and the question of women being ordained will be resolved.
