John Paul II and Women

From the Anchoress. It's a perspective you won't hear much in the MSM nor will you see it treated at such depth. RTWT.

This point was really just an aside she made, but it bears repeating:

There is authentic and thoughtful teaching behind all of the issues which critics say the church "MUST bring into the 21st century." I heard someone on tv - I think it was MSNBC - declare with utmost certainty that in order for the Catholic church to survive it must get "up to date with abortion, female ordination, divorce and gay rights..."

Because, you know...the ECUSA has done so well for itself and its people by embracing the modern on just those issues. The Church of England - up to date as all get out - is imploding.

I keep waiting for the professionals on TV to bring up the experience of mainline Protestant churches to the dissident Catholics who are getting so much air time.
