I don't think liberals and feminists look far enough ahead to see the potential unintended consequences of their recent actions against the RCC.
If the RCC is required to pay for birth control or employ people who do other things in conflict with the church, it would not be too hard to imagine a future where the Church finds it 'difficult' to find women who are qualified for positions that are under 50 years old.
The RCC, IMHO, is to focused on what they believe, as opposed to reality of the world where they exist.
I am not saying that they need to completely abandon their values, but they need to use common sense.
The current average of a RCC priest is 67 years old.
If they allowed priests to be married, they would not be so hard up as they currently are.
They may ride their current beliefs structure straight into obscurity....
