have women be priests. You do not hear about the nuns doing this crap and if you do it is not very many at all. I have never heard about the nuns doing this. I guess they were just mean. The Catholics need to step back and look at what they are doing wrong because they are defiantly doing something wrong. I thought that in order to become a priest you have to go through a mental examination and background check. If they don't THEY SHOULD!!! I feel for those many people who lives they have messed up.
