Can women be priests/pastors?
efe796 No.799294
No. Women are in a state of ontological subjugation to men, and therefore cannot serve the role of shepherd. Christ didn't choose male apostles by accident.

1577 "Only a baptized man (vir) validly receives sacred ordination." The Lord Jesus chose men (viri) to form the college of the twelve apostles, and the apostles did the same when they chose collaborators to succeed them in their ministry. The college of bishops, with whom the priests are united in the priesthood, makes the college of the twelve an ever-present and ever-active reality until Christ's return. The Church recognizes herself to be bound by this choice made by the Lord himself. For this reason the ordination of women is not possible.

Jesus spoke to women in public when in that time it was tabboo. Jesus also had female disciples like Mary Magdalene, Joanna, etc. They even discovered the empty tomb at a time when women being witnesses were not valid. 1 Corinthians 14:34 is most likely an interpoltation not originally written by Paul, the Pastorals are not authentic Pauline letters but forgeries by the later Patriarchal church. Paul actually praises women and calls one of them an apostle in Romans 16:7. Paul says there is neither male nor female in Galatians 3:28. Your bigotry against women will not stand. Certainly Jesus nor Paul would agree with it.

>On the basis of their language, content, and other factors, the pastoral epistles are today widely regarded as not having been written by Paul, but after his death.[12] (The Second Epistle to Timothy, however, is sometimes thought to be more likely than the other two to have been written by Paul.) Beginning with Friedrich Schleiermacher in a letter published in 1807, biblical textual critics and scholars examining the texts fail to find their vocabulary and literary style similar to Paul's unquestionably authentic letters, fail to fit the life situation of Paul in the epistles into Paul's reconstructed biography, and identify principles of the emerged Christian church rather than those of the apostolic generation.[13]

P.S. to be quite honest, I wouldnt have serious problem with that (we had deaconesses in old times though they arent technically part of Orthodox priesthood) if it werent for an elaborate plan by backers of SJWs to ruin the church from the inside.

Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.

None of this implies that women and men are ontologically equal as you assert. For if this were so, there would be no distinction between them and the very terms "man" and "woman" would be absurd. One cannot distinguish between two things if they are essentially equal, for two equal things are ultimately one.
Priesthood is a masculine role, as >>799297 said. It is unique and particular to men, mirroring Christ's relation to His Church. Women are not men, therefore they cannot mirror Christ in this capacity. What you are ultimately asking is for women to become men, to adopt a male nature, and then, when this is impossible (which it is), crying "bigotry" like some child throwing a tantrum.
>your bigotry against will not stand
Firstly, it is bigotry only insofar as the claim that men are not woman is bigoted. This is the truth, therefore there is no bigotry. Secondly, it obviously will stand since it is only extremely minor, modern and unimportant sects which take your point of view.
I'd like to reinforce >>799304 since your "rebuttal" is irrelevant. The Sacred Scriptures are inspired by the Holy Spirit, meaning that everything contained within them is chosen by God. It doesn't make any difference whether or not the Pauline Epistles are all authentic; the fact alone that God decided to include them vouchsafes them regarding their contained teachings.
You clearly have an agenda which is offensive to the true faith. How you can stand alone, against history, against all the saints and martyrs, against Holy Mother Church, and cling to your own opinion, is truly shocking. You should humble yourself instead of puffing yourself up like this.

>No. Women are in a state of ontological subjugation to men, and therefore cannot serve the role of shepherd. Christ didn't choose male apostles by accident.
But he did. Apostle just means "one who is sent". He told Mary Magdalene to tell of his Resurrection. She's been called the Apostle to the Apostles since the earliest times because of this.
And Paul counted Junia (not "Junias" the modern rendering in some evangelical versions) as one of the apostles who accompanied him. Basically, an Apostle is a missionary, but with the highest spiritual gifts. Anyone who was "sent" to foreign lands was called "Apostle" to that territory for the first few hundred years of the church. For example, St. Patrick is called the Apostle to Ireland, and had the Spirit of God working with him to prove it. The Georgian/Caucasus area had St. Nino (St. Nina), also accompanied by great power that converted the whole territory.
What Paul forbids is ministerial roles. That's not an Apostle. But something specific to congregational work, such as officiating the Lord's Supper. They are to be like Christ on Earth, as he is High Priest in heaven. So naturally, it's wrong that a woman would depict Christ himself.
The reason why Evangelicals are falling apart in this field though is because they've destroyed all distinctions of office and gifts in the church and put pastors on a pedestal. You have no saints, no role models other than pastors, and no gifts for everyone in the church.. so it's only natural that women revolt and try to take the only place that's allowed in these pretend churches. They reap what they sow. I don't pity or weep for this at all, because it isn't even the Church to begin with.

I just think a priest should fully dedicate his live to God, and life it in a different manner than the lay people. It's not that I don't think a non-celibate person can't be close to God, but someone who's a priest should fully dedicate his life to serving Him. Raising a family can be a beautiful thing and a way to get close to God, but it's more of an indirect way.

Monks are already doing that. The equivalent of a nun would really be a monk, both have to be celibate.
Imo a “priestess” reeks of the absurdities of paganism. My Orthodox priest is celibate but a priest is just a teacher. He could in theory have a wife. You could make that argument.
A Christian priestess… now that’s just absurd vanity.

The reason clergy can only be men actually stems from Judaic law. In judaic law, only men over 30 years of age could teach (be rabbis). That's why Jesus did not go out to preach until he was 30. Also, only men could teach with authority: women should be subservient to their husbands and listen to them, not teach them (as a general rule). Some parts of the judaic law go even further: you couldn't be a member of the Synedrion (jewish supreme court) unless you had a family. The logic behind that was that if you can't maintain and fairly administer a family, how could you judge strangers?
