Women priests, forbidden vocations
In a world where equality between women and men is a guiding principle for international bodies and democratic regimes, the Vatican's refusal to recognize women's access to the priesthood is once again under debate, particularly with the arrival of the new pope.
Historically, although clerical positions gradually became exclusively male, Pope John Paul II definitively closed the door to the possibility of ordaining women in 1994.
Since 2002, nearly 250 women have broken the ban and succeeded in getting ordained.
What do they have to say about the institution that rejects them? Are the faithful ready to hear their demands? Does this exclusion contribute to a form of unacknowledged sexism or does it have rational foundations?
As part of its campaign on secularization, the Centre d'Action Laïque invites you to the screening of Marie Mandy's documentary: "Women priests, forbidden vocations" (2024), the result of more than 10 years of work.
The screening will be followed by a discussion with:

Christina Moreira , Roman Catholic bishop (ARCWP – Association of Catholic Women Priests), French-Spanish
