Reasons the catholic church do not allow female priests
The church does not have the right
to say women can be priests. Only God can say that.
If the church cannot agree on it,it should be left as it is
Jesus chose 12 male disciples,so therefore only men were chosen to lead the church
Contrasting views to why the church does not allow female priests
Women are baptised the same as men so they should be allowed to follow the same steps and become a priest
Man or women,the mass should not matter on the gender of who is leading the mass.
God is a spirit, not a man, so should be treated as a mix of both male and female. Women priests will allow the female side of God to be seen more.

‘Church in Miniature’ with four main tasks:
to form a community (group of people)
to help with the life and personal development of each other
to take part in the development of the wider society
- to be part of the life and mission of the Church.
What is the traditional role of the male and the female?
The male is meant to go out and work long hours to be the provider of the family wheras the women needs to stay at home,look after the kids and clean and cook,do all the house work.
Today, Catholics regard men and women as equally important in bringing up children. Both parents often go out to
work. Give one reason for this:
Roles have changed and now in the modern day the roles are shared between each parent
When making the decision about who should work, what is the main thing Catholics should take into account?
Catholics should take in account wether the person wants to stay at home and look after the children (full time) compared to the other partner and the mental well being and what works best for each family
Give two reasons why single parents and same sex parents are not encouraged
They will not be able to grow the child up within the same way as a man and a women.Childs belief on certain things will be different.

should take place between a man and woman
who have married

Same-sex parents may say that it is the love between parents and children that really matters
Children dont need a mother and father to teach them good principles,leading them in a religion,educating a growing them to benefit society

Quote from CCC on gender equality
Man and woman were made ‘for eachother’ - not that God left them half-made and incomplete: he created them to be a communion of persons, in which each can be ‘helpmate’ to the other, for they are equal as persons . . . and complementary as masculine and feminine.
