How come a woman can't never be a prist in the Catholic faith?

I mean I heard that they have aulter girls now but I d on't see the point of that through since they say that woman can never be prist in the church anyway.
Anyone understand this or can tell me why they think there should be no woman prist ever in the history of the church?Comments anyone?This question has been brothering me so that is why it is good to ask it here since I know you guys would answear it.Thanks JM

Because according to the bible women are inferior beings that exist soley to please men.

Just another quick question to ask you,

May I ask where in the bible it says that.So I can look it up at my friend's house this afternoon.
If you tell me I will be very happy.So please tell me.
And thanks for answearing my question.See you around,JM 😮‍💨

It doens't actually say that, but if you read between the lines women are definately shown in a more negative light then men are.

Women cause lots of major problems in the bible, also it was written in the time when women were recognized as second rate citizens so they weren't really seen as independent creatures.

I hardly know anything about the Bible, but I do recall that a lot of women were prostitutes. Wasn't that shown by them washing feet of men or something?

if women were allowed to become priests, there would be pandemonium, and all sorts of sex drama and trauma as the Catholic priests fell in lust with alter boys and molested them sexually...

yeah, so, not too much different then what's been going on with only men in charge...

There are actually some schools of thought that say Mary Magdaline was not a...ho...but rather the wife of Jesus and the mother of his daughter.

Regarding the OP, the relevant Bible passage would be in 1 Timothy: "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence" (2:12).

Basically because Christianity is a totally sexist organization. Which is partly because a lot of big important leaders in the past have edited the Bible to say that women are responsible for all of mankind's struggles (Adam and Eve) so that they would be easier to keep out of the government. And tbh, these feminist people really bother me, just so you don't think I'm some new age nutjob who lives with twenty cats.

Yeah. Some people think now that the part about Jesus having a wife was changed to both cast women in a negative light, and to make sexual relationships seem sinful and all that fun stuff.

Tradition, I'm guessing. In the book of Galatians it says that "there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for we are all one in Christ Jesus." And women seem to be pretty well represented in the New Testament, since they stayed with him after the crucifixion and went to his tomb, after all the men had scarpered and gone into hiding. And so on. A pretty good record considering that the Romans treated women like property, the Greeks treated them like houseplants, and the only other priestesses around were the holy prostitutes who served Aphrodite.
And yes, quite a few New Testament women were prostitutes, or more accurately, had been. So what?

Mary Magdalene was considered a prostitute right? I think it was her, but whatever, I mean the ladies who washed the mens' feet and then dried them with their hair..........

I love this thread....😛
