Elsewhere on the same pathetic page...

I get SO frustrated with the Catholic religious right wing.  There's something wrong with the church who says on one hand that we have a priest shortage, and on the other, we will not ordain women or married men.  Below is a quote from the same blog article as mentioned before.  I have spoken to Bridget Mary Meehan on the telephone, and find her to be a breath of fresh air, along the lines of Joan Chittister.  I hope she DOES get ordained...more power to her!

It has just come to my attention that one of the women to be "ordained" this July 31 in Pittsburgh isBridget Mary Meehan. 

Bridget Mary Meehan, D.Min., a Sister for Christian Community, will be ordained a Roman Catholic priest in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on July 31. Dr. Meehan is currently Dean of the Doctor of Ministry Program for Global Ministries University, and is the author of 15 books, including "The Healing Power of Prayer" and "Praying with Visionary Women.". Dr. Meehan can be reached at SofiaBMM@aol.com. The website is Roman Catholic Womenpriests. (Source: The case for women priests, Guest Commentary By Bridget Mary Meehan,Global Ministries University)
