Curt Jester had this the other day at Traddy womynpriest. He says in part:
If women are being called to the priesthood then why is it only dissident women that are being called? Where are the women being ordained that have a preference for the extraordinary form of the Mass? Why do they always have a preference for Hippy stoles and not beautifully embroidered ones. Where are the traditionalist women priestesses who are being called?.
This is something I have touched on before. I noted just last week that in the Anglican Communion that there are female "priest" that are far more traditional. That is it seem they do not have a urge to burn the whole thing down.
When I converted there was a lot of talk about female priests in the Catholic Church. In fact most campus ministers I knew were very much for it and believed it. However one could tell by some of liturgical boundaries they were pushing (one could go not too far in conservative Louisiana even among College kids) that their vision of Church, liturgy, authority and even some fundamental Christian doctrine was quite different.
When I went of annual Louisiana Catholic College Retreat it was rare that one of these sister (Priests in waiting if the the Vatican just gave the word) would lets say do the Rosary or lets have a night of Adoration. It was more in the name of the Creator-Redeemer-Santifier stuff and session how Father Matthew Fox (recall that flake) was one of the most theologians of the 20th Century. Also there seemed to be just a plan anti authority tinge to some of their actions. Oh and everything before Vatican II of course was the "dark ages".
