There are indications that Pope Francis intends to introduce female "deacons" according to Phyllis Zagano (NcrOnline.org, April 24).
The radical Zagano was a member of the papal commissionabout female "deacons." She is a longtime advocate for the introduction of such an abuse.
According to Zagano Francis may talk about female deacons during a May 10 audience for the superiors of sisters and nuns.
She believes that Francis is ready to invent female "deacons" and introduce them.
Zagano also sees an indication in this direction in a questionnaire sent out ahead of the Amazon Synod which contains a query about "official ministry for women."
The phrase "official ministry" can only mean “ordination,” Zagano stresses.
Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
Rumour mill. It will or will not happen. Let's wait and see.
