Re: Synod Final Document Changed From the Draft
The gathering of the bishops for the synod proved that the topic was settled and posed less than 1% of importance compared with the other pressing Church issues francis had to face.....hence the declaration - no women deacons
Now in an about face, francis has imposed something contrary to canon law.......if the presiding group of bishops at the synod have decided that there can be no women deacons then this is the final standing on the issue.
francis is going beyond his powers and it will not fare well for him
the diaconate is the preparation for the priesthood
women already have leading roles in the church such as preparing people for sacraments
this power play is not good for the church ....neither from francis or the women pressing for admission to the diaconate.
