In the CofE it was ten years ago that women could be ordained priests (they'd been allowed to be ordained deacons for sometime, not sure how long). There has been lots of articles about as it's the tenth anniversary this year. |

I think Jo's reaction to the appointment of a female Chaplain would be negative at best, hostile at worst, because she converted to Catholicism when she married Jack, and the RC attitude to priestesses is pretty horrendous |

By the way whoever it was, Pat I think, the trouble with the word priestess is that it was used by the anti women's ordination group, as a slur, relating to the idea of high priestesss and witchcraft. So the word priest is used to emphasise that a woman priest is in no way inferior to a male priest. A fascinating quandry for the school! |
