MILWAUKEE -- "Despite warning signs that they
would not win the fight to oust their priests, parishioners in a small Wisconsin
town didn't relent. Neither did their bishop, Robert Morlino of
Madison. After battling for almost two years, members of St. Mary Parish
in Platteville were told by Morlino on April 25 that if they persisted in what
he characterized as spreading "rumors and gossip," the Catholics would face some
of the church's harshest sanctions: the denial of the sacraments of Communion,
confession and burial."

To suggest that women should be ordained priests denies the will of God, the very God who selected 12 men to be His Apostles.
