Well last night on MSNBC there was a discussion on Scarborough country with Pat Buchanan vs. some casually dressed nun. And of course they got heated in debates about church doctrine and Buchanan's thesis was very simple that the church's doctrine cannot change when they've been consistently upheld over the centuries and entered the tradition of the church. Sadly the discussion was being interrupted by commercial breaks so not much was accomplished. But I did notice that the nun was getting a little desperate at times. Her only argument was about segregated seminaries and how those were done away with as proof that church doctrine can change(indeed I love how Liberals use these types of examples to prove their case, which very rarely if ever involve actual doctrine and dogma).
She pointed out that Jesus sent a woman out to heal a community as proof that women can be priests, Buchanan replied that women can be saints, doctors of the church, mystics, etc. but they can't be priests. Buchanan wasnt able to mention that the priest is supposed to be a representive of God/Christ who is male. You cant have a female representing God in the mass. But as Buchanan said, women can and have fufilled many roles within the church; so it's not like women are being neglected by the church as feminists claim.
