THE WOMEN DIACONATE? It IS ABOUT TO "TALK RECOVERY ', BUT HOW CAN RESTORE WHAT HAS NEVER EXISTED?

Among riots of Catholic journalists “committed” and feminist theologians who already shout “victory!”, the televisions are talking and titrating newspapers that "Pope Francis opened the diaconate to women '. I would have much to say about Catholic journalists “committed” and the feminist theologians who I respect very worst of seven plagues of Egypt and who are already speaking and writing of 'recovery' of the female diaconate ", which they say "existed in the first centuries of the Church's life", while in truth none of this ever existed.

The Supreme Pontiff, in one of its expressions arm, he returned to raise yet another hornet's nest, before which one wonders: in launching certain jokes that in a few minutes then they do around the world filling the pages of newspapers, our August Pontiff, You can not fully realizing what he says, or maybe it makes the other hand account? The answer to such a question is in the consciousness, that only God can read.

.

The Holy Father has a habit - in my opinion misleading - To be interviewed by journalists and allow people ask him questions at point blank range in public settings; and are often focused on questions of extraordinary delicacy issues that can not be answered with a joke more or less telegraphic. Neither can be answered in improvised and vague, because none of us is omniscient; and philosophical disciplines, theological, historical, legal, They are so complex and complicated that even the Vicar of Christ on earth can know every science all that knowledge.

But first of all let's see what really happened: during the meeting with the Supreme Pontiff of the Union of Superiors Major "consecrated presented the issue of the opening of the permanent diaconate to women, with reference to the early Church. Francis said that the ancient role of deaconesses is not still very clear and said he was willing to be of interest to the issue of a Commission study ' [see text on Vatican Radio, WHO]..

The Holy Father did not give an answer, He replied saying he was "willing to be of interest to the issue of a Commission study '. But within a few hours, including dances, Catholic journalists “committed” and feminist theologians who already shout “victory!”, the televisions are talking and titrating newspapers that "Pope Francis opened the diaconate to women '. I would have much to say about Catholic journalists “committed” and the feminist theologians who I respect very worst of seven plagues of Egypt and already they are talking and writing about the 'recovery' of the female diaconate ", which they say "existed in the first centuries of the Church's life", while in truth none of this ever existed.

I am very pleased that the Supreme Pontiff, answering, it is in a sense put the shelter stating: "The ancient role of the woman deacon is still not very clear». I am equally pleased that he decided to make even this is answered, as in the past it was given to the demands on priesthood to women; and the answer was that we remember the following:

"Therefore, in order to remove any doubt about a matter of great importance, it pertains to the divine constitution of the Church, in virtue of my ministry of confirming the brethren, I declare that the Church It does not in any way to confer priestly ordination on women and that this judgment is to be held definitively by all the Church's faithful " [2]

The answer was "no" with finality. I take this opportunity to explain what is meant in dogmatic theology with defining e definitive. The way defining It is expressed through the dogma and imply the infallibility. The way definitive It is expressed when the Pope proceeds to "confirm his brothers in faith" [cf. LC 22,32]. In both cases, both expressing themselves through definitive magisterium both through the magisterium definitional, he expresses himself infallibly [3]. .

Incidentally: as always we invite you to go to the sources and never to rely on “heard” and the evil of the newspapers interpretations, then read the official text which is quoted in full the interview of the Holy Father with the religious (cf. WHO).

Not having had no direct wire with the Supreme Pontiff nor with his close associates, seeing that he intends to appoint a study commission, I wish to make it available as of now already done a study on this issue, which is precisely the study my. This study I published in February 2010 farfetched to refute a statement of Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini, which it was hoped, just as today they hope Catholic journalists “committed” and feminist theologians who I respect very worst of seven plagues of Egypt, the "restoration" of what the Church is the East and the West has never existed: the female diaconate. What I explain in this study already revived in December 2014 on the columns of Theologica of the island of Patmos.
