Tabla de Contenidos:
- The Church must formalize the ministry of women
- Men and women are ontologically equal
- The Church has given reasons why women, although ontologically equal to men, may not be ordained to priesthood
- The judgment that women cannot be ordained priests does not apply to the question of whether women can be ordained deacons
- Women are and have been called to the diaconate
- There are stronger arguments from Scripture, history, tradition, and theology that women may be ordained deacons than that women may not be ordained deacons
- Women have continually served the Church in diaconal ministry, whether ordained to such service or not
- The ordained ministry of service by women is necessary to the Church, that is, to both the people of God and the hierarchy
- The ordination of women to the diaconate is possible.
