The answer to that is really quite simple: while Pope Francis posts are preponderance of platitudes that are above contesting or are ambiguous but sounds good, then he removes a brick from the traditions that underpin the Catholic faith. He's been doing this for a long time now.

After many years of hearing about your book, I’m eagerly waiting for it to be delivered! My church put out a video seeking more laity help and I was interested in being a lector but I won’t. I hope they find a way to have more people entering the seminary instead 🙏

I'm an instituted acolyte (outside of seminary), and this motu proprio felt like a punch in the gut to me and to my vocation. Since women aren't capable of being Catholic ministers, to admit them into these offices is effectively to declare them no longer to be ministries. As an aside, those who received the minor order of lector could also chant the Epistle at High Mass (SRC 3377).

They just can't do it. A woman cannot stand in the place of Christ. Why doesn't Pope Francis encourage women to be Mothers? Why doesn't he encourage large families. I am one of ten children from a Catholic family and therefore I am not in trend!! My Mother and Father had to battle against priests and Bishops in supporting the Church. What are they doing to it?

So chaotic/evil. He's got his hour, Almighty God has His Day!

Does the traditional Catholic Church have the minor order of Exorcist for laity like the Acolyte???

Many porters became saints. Who was the porter at St. Josephs shrine in Canada that became blessed?

3:58 order vs ministry. Whats the difference? Side comment about women. Wasn't it so that women have also experienced stigmata.

Why not a division of spiritual labor? God gave men and women different gifts. I believe there is such a thing as Christian feminism. It is Mother centric and is devoted to placing respect on those feminine gifts. Acknowledging and giving both sexes their due respect would be so healthy for the church. Giving boys and girls different tasks points them to God's beautiful design.

A time is coming when there will be a Mass for every stripe and color. Every Mass will be different. Don't want to offend anyone...

Bowing to social political correctness. God how he was to be worshiped and gender to do it. Jesus reflects the Father. The Church should always reflect our Lord Jesus.

There may come a time when women will become priests - strange theology, Mary the first priest ("protopriest" or "archpriest") bringing forth Christ into the flesh.

Hello??? Women have been serving as "Lectors" for years and years . . . This is nothing new!

This is not a difficult question: the goal of Francis The Apostate is destruction of the Church... obviously.

A.) St. Sixtus 1 (c. 115): "The Sacred Vessels are not to be handled by others than those consecrated to the Lord." Those who *say* they want to go back to the early church ignore the fact that women at the very beginning weren't allowed to be consecrated for this, nor allowed to touch sacred objects, nor allowed to do readings, all of which affects what Pope Pachamana wants for acolytes and lectors. And St. Paul wrote in the Sacred Scripture that women were to keep silent in the churches (1 Cor. 14: 34-35; 1 Tim 2:11-12). Then Sacred Tradition enters... 2.) St. Basil the Great, Doctor of the Church (330-379): "The right to receive Holy Communion in the hand is permitted only in times of persecution." St. Basil the Great considered Communion in the hand so irregular that he did not hesitate to consider it a grave fault. 3.) The Council of Saragossa (380): Excommunicated anyone who dared continue *receiving Holy Communion by hand.* 4.) This was *confirmed* by the Synod of Toledo. 5.) Saint Leo the Great read the sixth chapter of Saint John's Gospel as referring to the Eucharist (as all the Church Fathers did). In a preserved sermon on John 6 (Sermon 9), Saint Leo says: "Hoc enim ore sumitur quod fide creditur" (Serm. 91.3). This is translated strictly as: “This indeed is received by means of the mouth which we believe by means of faith. "Ore" is here in the ablative and in the context it denotes instrumentation. So then, the *mouth* is the means by which the Holy Eucharist is received. 6.) The Synod of Rouen (650): Condemned Communion in the hand to halt widespread abuses that occurred from this practice, and as a safeguard against *sacrilege.* Those who are amicable don't have a problem then after learning about this to start receiving on the tongue so as to try and help limit sacrilege, but the defiant types won't. The Council of Rouen (650): “Do not put the Eucharist in the hands of any layman or laywoman but *only in their mouths.”* 7.) The 6th Ecumenical Council, at Constantinople (680-681): Forbade the faithful to take the Sacred Host in their hand, threatening transgressors *with excommunication.* 8.) St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274): "Out of reverence towards this Sacrament [the Holy Eucharist], *nothing touches it,* but what is consecrated; hence the corporal and the chalice are consecrated, and likewise the priest's hands, for touching this Sacrament." (Summa Theologica, Part III, Q. 82, Art. 3, Rep. Obj. 8.) 9.) The Council of Trent (1545-1565): "The fact that only the priest gives Holy Communion with his consecrated hands is an *Apostolic Tradition".*

No women. Its as God wanted to be. I dont accept this new way. Will never.

why dont you people just read a bible ?????????????
