Pope Benedict Gives Speech on Human Rights to German Legislature/ 100 Members Boycott Speech/Women Priests Movement "Elephant" in Pope's Living Room?

Bridget Mary's Reflection:
It is ironic that Pope Benedict supports human rights but fails to affirm the full equality of women in his own church. The Women priests' Movement is the "elephant" in the Pope's living room. Whether Benedict is "blissfully clueless", or not, Roman Catholic Women Priests are leading the church into its future by living Gospel equality now. We believe women's rights are human rights, and this moral principle applies to the Catholic Church in the same way as it applies to every other institution in our world.
Perhaps, this was one of the reasons for the boycott of 100 lawmakers who did not attend Benedict's address to the German legislature.
