The presentation that they were able to express their feelings, but their lack ofacceptance and focused on the misunderstandings that exist in our community about gays need for justification served to illustrate the very attitudes that lead to the and lesbians, and how these misunderstandings can lead to intolerance and problems that were being discussed. violence. The discussion of these misunderstandings is a good starting point. We The lecturers explored homophobia and gay bashing, and accurately now know where we stand. Regrettably, where we stand is far behind the described them as learned activities, activities which can only serve to line of acceptance and understanding.

However, the discussion generated at this overcome with relation to acceptance of gays and lesbians on this campus. lecture proved that this will be a difficult task. Our campus is in many ways a sheltered community.

Women in the church not a radical ne~r idea 11 r().pe Why can't women be priests ag_ain? It3X Yes, again. When were women priests? Well, over fifteen occurs ofo.!J centuries ago Leta, Flavia, Yitalia, Nepos, and Mania were rapes o.re by Iby Julie Catholic priesiS. It appears that it might be time to graciously every 6 Evans allow women to be ordained again. males under The House of Delegates of the National Federation ofPriests' seconds/ Council (NFPC) recently convened to examine the growing problc:m of "priestless 2.5! parishes." A "priestless parish" refers to the absence of a resident priest, or of the Eucharist every Sunday due to the decline in the number of male priests. The 25 percent decline in active diocesan male priests from 1970 to 1990 leaves the Catholic Church in trouble as the population grows. So while the Church is busy crying over the lack of priests, they are continually turning away women who are willing and eager to become priests. The obvious solution would be to let women become priests again. It is true that the NFPC is discussing the possibility of ordaining women. How self-serving of them considering the shonage of priests. Guilty Of Being Male However, it is not as simple as it sounds. It seems the NFPC stated that optional celibacy and women's ordination "needed to be fully discussed" and that women's The Carroll Ne,vs ordination is "far more problematic" theologically than the idea of manied male priests. Jesus seemed to have liule trouble accepting women as faithful followers. It is to women that Jesus first appears after his resurrection and it is women who notify the disciples. The women also stayed by Jesus during the cruxifiction and, unlike the male disciples, there is no record of them denying or deserting him. But wait. the Church's other main defense for excluding women is that priests must bear a natural likeness to Jesus. In this case natural likeness is cleverly defined as physical attributes, or male anatomical characteristics. I believe that one's moral and spiritual character should be more important than one's physical characteristics, but apparently others disagree. The most obvious reason as to why women cannot be priests is one that society can easily answer. Women cannot be priests because that would grant women power within the Church. Society, whether it be organized religion, business, or politics, want-; to keep women at the bottom of the pecking order. The NFPC's statement of "far more problematic" see~s to be rhetoric, designed to exclude women from positions of power within the hierarchical and patriazchal Church. One last thing I ask you to ponder is from the eloquent speech of Soujoumer Truth, an abolitionist When speaking of where Jesus came from, she said, "God and a woman- man had nothing to do with il" The Carroll News, November 21,1991 FORUM Page3 etters to the editor
