Thanks for the clarification of the Catholic church's position. I was speaking more for why I believe that women aren't ordained. Coming from a Baptist background, I know that the reasons I gave above are used.
But (and, just a thought here) given that a preist himself is a member of the Body of Christ (the Bride of Christ), wouldn't he also be female spititually speaking? Maybe that's a weird thought, I dunno...but someone once told me that we are all spiritually female (not in a literal sense, of course, but as the corporate Bride of Christ)..so....
