What's wrong with women priests?

I am Lutheran, and I can’t say I agree with the restriction the Catholic Church set against women holding priesthood. It is again… another double standard.

I know, the Catholic Church is a patriarchal institution… but what is the issue with having women involved? The church view women primarily as wives and mothers… why? Why can’t a wife be a priest? Why can’t a mother be a priest? Why can’t just a plain Catholic woman be a priest?

This isn’t a construction site where a man’s physical strength is needed… this is a church. A woman can have the same voice as a man, the same biblical knowledge as a man, the same religious reasoning as a man…

Is that difficult to understand?

Women, pray for a change.

I guess that's why there are so many different Christian sects...

Pray all you want.  The Church is not a democracy.  There use to be women priests and there can be again.  All it takes is an edict from the Pope.  But then that is what it takes, not a vote by the laity.
