Feminist Agenda or Higher Principals?
A Reform Synagogue in St. Louis has offered its sanctuary to two women who wish to be ordained into the Catholic Church as priests.
The local Archdiocese is angry.
The Rabbi of the Synagogue is a woman.
Read the whole story here, and then tell me where your sympathies fall.
A good argument in favor of this action might be that this is a kind and loving and open and accepting thing for the schul to do. That sanctuary is sanctuary.
And I will understand that argument.
But I don't accept it.
I think instead that this is meddling of the silliest order. That this is looking for a fight and finding it with delight. That Synagogues need not have much interest in the afffairs of Catholic Churches and vice versa. That this is Feminism gone mental.
Will I be surprised to learn that Lesbianism is it at the core of this story and that there is considerable winking and chortling behind the altars and that none of this will ever emerge lest it be called politically incorrect and various abominations and discriminatory and witch hunting? No.
