The Holy See on the Ordination of Women

St Augustine of Hippo and St John Damascene refer to female priesthood as heresy.

Thomas Aquinas and Bonaventure too rejected the female priesthood.

John Paul II, echoed the words of his predecessor Pius XII when he stated that the church has no authority to change that which is given by Christ. Sacred Tradition will admit no change.

If Anglicans are truly part of one, holy, catholic and apostolic church as we profess, we cannot only choose the mandates from the Holy See that we feel are modern and politically correct.
