I did hear a priest say that in a sermon. After the sermon I went up to him and basically said "when hell freezes over". Though maybe the better answer is "when the gates of hell prevail".

How about this morning to the 1st communion candidates . . . following up the question "what do you want to be when you grow up" . . . which he tied nicely into the readings, by the way . . . but I digress . . . in giving examples . . . astronaut, doctor, lawyer, priest, first married priest, first female priest, mechanic . . .

retired parochial vicar and 48 years ordained . . .

do you realize how much it takes in the way of [i]cojones[/i] not to duck when someone fires a pistol at you? If you want to get into the noble futility of dueling, two educated men taking turns shooting at each other from close range is tops.

Yeah, but you could end up with a lucky win/loss. One fluky shot and it's over. It hardly determines the better fighter. I'm voting for the swords.

Then again, I'm not much of a gun man myself. I say we fight with tacos, so very tasty and good for you,.

I'm not saying it's not noble, just that it isn't as epic as a swordfight. Or something.

even though it will never happen or I should say i would hope it will never happen i think that if it ever would there would be a huge controversy(sp?) about it but in time we would just have to learn to accept it despise(sp?) how much we dont like it. But we should never have to wory about that ever happening.

I'd say this "That is impossible since it has been infallably defined that only men can be priests" but in my mind and my letter to my Bishop may go something more like this "You heretic! You accursed horrible priest! You deserve to be solemnly excommunicated and never be allowed to say Mass, hear Confessions, Administer the Sacraments, give spiritual advice, or preach again!" Probably without the "You accursed horrible priest!" and "again" thus never would become not.

I would say then end is near. I think this will happen. Of course they wont really be Priests and he wont be talking talking about the True Church. But many Saints have foretold a time when a mock Church will be thought to be the Mystical body and horrible blasphemies will occurr. I am not ready for the 3 days.

You mean like Scripture never said we could Tradition says we never have and the Magesteriums says we never will?

Once I was Confessing while on holiday, so not in my native tongue and with a priest I didn't know. He asked me about my activities in Church, and later commented that if the people from a couple of centuries in the future would look back at my activities and that of other women in the Church, they would see it as steps in the line of women becoming priests. (He didn't say he agreed with that, though.)

I was like

And said "I don't think I'll live to see that day." (Because honestly, you DON'T want to get into that discussion during Confession, apart from that he's a priest and I don't like talking back to priests. In a strange language.)

After which he did give me a good penance and some things I could really work with.
