Women
As Priests ?
[ send
me this paper ]
A 7 page paper on the controversial issue of womens'
ordination. The writer is particularly concerned with
the impact that mid-1990's statement made by Pope John
Paul II had on the topic ('I declare that the church
has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly
ordination on women and that this judgment is to be
definitively held by all the church's faithful'). The
discussion continues with the views of other clergy,
disparate opinions from different sects of the
religion, and so forth. It is concluded that if there
is truly some religious reason for barring women from
the priesthood, it has not been effectively
articulated as of yet and thus, women should be
ordained--even though this will not be widely-accepted
anytime soon. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

movement has taken over the debate, the

pornography is beneficial to women in many ways;
however, this argument has not been given due respect
and attention. The writer discusses the various
aspects of pornography that are beneficial to women,
as well as addresses the counterpoints of those who
oppose the concept. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
