i was talking about this picture, in which there are no womenthat is the same picture Nazgulinthedark as Darth Raven posted only his picture is original while the one you posted is a replica of Da Vinci`s Last Supper.
If you look at the person supposedly to be John(# 6 from the left, the one in green shirt with a brown robe over the arm) originally that shirt was blue
here is a picture (yet again) of that person after restoration
Hheheh. Maybe. Although I am not sure the Bible has anything to do with the ordination of women, after all it was written before the Christian churches came into being, and when the Christian Church was formed during the women periods it was natural for women to have a subservient role in most things except religion. Women were often important parts of the "pagan" religions, in early Rome some of the most powerful people were the Vestal Virgins, which is all odd, as outside religion women were distinctly lower then men. Also there was a lot of controversy at times during the early "Dark Ages", it is possible there may have been a woman Pope, many Bishops and clergy were pawns of mistresses, and a number of Popes were under the thumb of their mothers. Does this have anything to do with it? Maybe, maybe not, but it may have contributed... and not all religions and/or denominations exclude women from being Priests, so it is probably only a matter of time...

well, this isnt what i think, but the thing is that catholics believe that when a priest is giving a service, the lord is kind of speaking through him, and they just think its better if a guy speaks through a guy than a guy speaking through a girl i guess. i disagree, but what can ya do
Power! my friend, it all has to do with power. The rationalization is: it was Adam that sinned, therefore, man must do the work.
