Women as Priests?

The Roman Church has a ban on women becoming priests. About 150 of these women went on their own to become priests. Rosemarie Smead is the newest women priest. These women do not fear excommunication. They believe the Church will eventually come to a conclusion and let women be priests. About 70 percent of Catholics believe that women should be allowed to join the priesthood. The Catholic Church teaches that only men should become priests because Jesus only chose men as the apostles. The Catholic Church is divided on this view but the Vatican teaches strictly that men can only join the priesthood.
