VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Reinforcing its opposition to female priests, the Vatican said Monday it had excommunicated seven women, including a nun, who were ordained in June in a ceremony on a boat in Austria.
"Because the women ... did not give any indication of amendment or repentance for the most serious offence they had committed...they have incurred excommunication," Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, a papal right-hand man, said in a press release from the Vatican.
Fuckers.
My mother decided some time ago that any religion which wouldn't allow her, as a woman, to participate at the highlest levels didn't deserve her participation on any level. I agree.
