Entertaining Ordaining women (again)? Utter Stupidity, five reasons right off the top of my head…
1.. True Man & True God.. Jesus was not in error in only Ordaining men.
2.. the Church does not have the authority to ordain men.
3… (unfair?) Mary is-and-will-always-be the Greatest Human that ever lived.
4.. (not ordained) Mary could have said: “This is My Body.. ” and she was not ordained.
5..men and women ARE EQUAL … in their dignity as persons before God.. and equal members of the human species…
but men and women ARE NOT THE SAME!
One can only gather that Leo does not believe (and/or his lavender mafia handlers do not believe.. ) any of the above.
As if it wasn’t culture and not the teaching of the Church that is driving the woman’s ordination hysteria.
When these apostates begin the charade of Holy Orders for women, I’ll be headed for the SSPX, even if I have to sell my house and move.
Clearly he is a more measured and genteel version of Francis. Which means the College of Cardinals yelled out “hold my beer!” while we were praying for a reversal of Francis-mania during the Conclave of 2025.
They were careless people, Tom and Daisy…
The proper answer to that question is that no man will ever be the equal to the Virgin Mary.
The Church also needs to see the face of Jesus in those who are the victims of migration, from those enduring depressed wages, to the raped and those who have to be buried.
But it never does. And so, the current messaging falls on increasingly–and quite understandably–numbed hearts and deaf ears. People know selective sympathy and double standards when they see it.

And in those who are roughly satisfied with their communities and not anxious to see them turned over to foreigners (while the word merchant element is busy trashing their ancestors and often trashing them).

I am equal in dignity to any man. But I feel absolutely no compulsion to grow a mustache to prove it.
The man is still new to the job. In charity we should grant him time for reflection and the talent for “non-speak” that often goes with high positions by necessity.
1) I did not see anything that Pope Leo stated that indicates he favors women deacons. He simply said it was being “studied” – which is common knowledge and has been for the last several months. This does not equate his support for it. He stated the dignity of women and men is equal and must be defended. I find nothing objectionable in any of that.
2) Pope Leo graciously and warmly welcomed the King and Queen of England to the Vatican and prayed with then in an ecumenical prayer service. It was the King’s wish to visit the Vatican, which had been planned earlier this year before Pope Francis’ death. Considering the fragile health of King Charles, the Pope’s kindness to them is especially Christian and commendable, IMO. I am pleased and not a bit surprised at Pope Leo’s kindness and hospitality to them. Perhaps it will be the start of better relations, God willing. Baby steps.
3) Pope Leo said nothing to promote open borders. What he said was that it is despicable to treat illegal immigrants in an inhumane manner. He did not say they should not be arrested for entering illegally. He simply said they should not be mistreated. I find no problem with that, especially in view of St. John Paul’s exhortation for us not to forget the imprisoned,
We should be careful not to put words into anyone’s mouth, especially Pope Leo’s, and to automatically assume the worst intentions. I would expect nothing less than my pope treating everyone with Catholic dignity and care, whether they are Catholic or not, no matter what their nationality or position in life.
I say this all with respect to you, Mr. McClarey.
