Hi Kag,

I agree.  This sexism needs to be eradicated completely.  

No one gets to be called a good guy or good Cardinal or Good Pope until they act like they are just and good and ordain women the same as men starting with priesthood and then allow married people priestly ordination too.

We should get rid of all forms of permanent deacons as this ministry was only ever taken out of hibernation to support the sexism and clericalization of lay married men and simply is not a necessary ministry and therefore should not be paid for or continued.  

Discrimination against women is an attack against the human dignity of women and not a mere  culture issue.  It is insulting of this cardinal and the Pope to treat the issue otherwise.
