A powerful African pastor said something that I have always believed in my heart and soul..."When anyone and especially clergyman or woman fight to the Death to uphold a title and must be honored according to that title...Then it is no longer about uplifting or representing God...it is about uplifting you...( Satan in the Flesh)
Wise words because then its about ego...good movie but we have to be careful when we want mankind to provide titles over just being content with what God desires...sometimes what ppl think is God's will is their own ambitions
Awesome film, all the actors are top shelf above the manufactured phonies in Hollyweird. Lou Diamond Phillips is way above the standard in acting and I'm never disappointed. Thanks for sharing...
I work in a male dominated environment and to me this movie hits " right at the core" of my existence. Who has the right to decide on my life/career, choices/paths. It has been a long hard struggle but by the grace of God "I'm still standing". I have been placed on suspensions, didn't receive a salary for sometime, but by His grace I survived. Remembering that this wont/ was not to be my first disciplinary action, I taught I would die. Not realising it would not be the end of that. I would have to suffer a number of "disciplinary actions against me, by the institute I work for bcos I refuse to conform to the "norm". God has blessed me with wisdom/discernment, and the understanding that I am here to do HIS works and to change/challenge the "status quo" it has not been a easy walk but I have done so by His Grace. So to everybody that has been told "its not done this way, its a mans world, don't rock the apple cart........... I say NO..... If God felt I was not "suppose to", I believe my heavenly Father would not have seen me tru all those tribulations. So do not let ANYBODY tell you NO, because if God be4 you, who can be against you " the world perhaps" but my Father in heaven has the final say....... TO GOD BE THE GLORY
I really enjoyed this movie. Many great arguments were made. The character of Tom deeply changed from the beginning. I didn't think I'd like him, but he turned out to be a very caring and decent man. I liked the judge and thought he was a very fair man.
@@flower5396 ..ppl who know the difference read God's Word for themselves. And it doesn't have to b a catholic (said w/ derision) Bible. New king James version is good as well as th amplified Bible. Both are available in the youversion Bible app.
@@flower5396 The difference is easy to distinguish: God said it, that settles it. It isn't what man claims God said, it's what the Scriptures say God said. As for which Scriptures-- God is powerful enough to keep His Word safe in any King James Bible-- understandable enough when diligently studied.
The people behind this movie are smart. The emotions that would surround such controversy are well articulated. It's almost as if the film is based on actual events
It says in bible that women cannot be head of church... women to be silent in church too. Women cannot be head pastor, but they can be Sunday school teacher...
I never leave comments, but after seeing this film, which if I am correct, is fictional, I would have MANY things to say. Jesus said, "Be one as my Father and I are one." The film portrays what will obligatorily happen in the Catholic Church eventually. Seminaries are literally empty because young men are not joining.Why? Each one answer herself/himself. Jesus DID NOT establish A church while He was here on Earth. Denominations DO NOT SAVE. We are saved by the grace of God. As for the film, I think it was very necessary to do something like this. Let's all read up on our history and when reading the Book of books, ask the Holy Spirit for discernment and understanding so as to not have our own interpretation of the Holy Scriptures. I enjoyed the film very much. God bless!
Jesus DID establish Church. Read Gospels! Seminaries are empty only as much as the Church dropped ball on discipline and relaxed formation and liturgy. Traditional priestly societies are full of young men. I think USA in particular is on trend where so called Traditional Latin Mass parishes are going to outgrown regular parishes. The only issues is that pope and cardinals/bishops in power don't want to recognize post second Vatican approach as failure. Faithful priests get treated harshly, because they don't use pretentious clerical buzzwords and platitudes instead of traditional practices and discipline.

"And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven." Matthew 16:18-19 "And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And seeing him they adored: but some doubted. And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. Going therefore, teach ye all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. And behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world." Matthew 28:16-20 Nowhere is Jesus Christ recorded as saying, "...upon this Bible...", or "...give the Bible to all nations..." He said TEACH. He gave men the keys of the kingdom of Heaven. He gave authority to teach nations, to men of His CHURCH. Denominations? No. Jesus Christ did not authorise a multiplicity of differing churches. He built one only. And He built it upon His appointed Apostle, Peter.

@@jamesking5508 What is your point? Do you mean to say that Christ was not God? Or that the Bible is not Divinely inspired and therefore not infallible? Or perhaps you suggest that God contradicts Himself, referring at times to 'the Church', and at others to 'the churches'. If none of these is true...the obvious conclusion is that physical assemblies or parishes are meant when the Bible refers to 'churches' (rather than to a multiplicity of denominations or 'Churches').
I felt that Edy Ganem gave great authenticity to her role and demonstrated an emotional depth I have rarely experienced. Thank you to all associated with the making of this significant movie.
This movie is surprisingly good. I was concerned at the opening that the film would seem low budget and the characters would be too cliche. I am happy to have been wrong in my assumptions. I came here because of Aaron Tveit (I’m a musical theater nerd) and Lou Diamond Phillips but the breakout star is the woman playing Alejandra. She is wonderful! I cared for her character deeply and appreciated how she was both powerful and feminine. The movie doesn’t make this issue easy and there is no clear villain (other than some random unstable guy). Both the church and Alejandra have a point to be made and that deserve to be heard. Well done!
I just stumbled upon a trailer for this film. Aaron Tveit and Lou Diamond Phillips are who brought me here also. Two of my very favorites. I don’t remember seeing or hearing anything about this film when it was released. It must have been kept very low key. Not much advertising.

I'm not an attorney. I wouldn't know a script if it hit me round the head - I'm not an attorney. I'm stinkin' rich though - just hopelessly inarticulate and I cain't reed. So I'm off to find a film with some bombs going off because I'm not a priest either. Have fun, everybody!
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Excellent acting and script and some compelling legal arguments in support of its thesis. Particularly liked the comparison with the Mormons and polygamy. Thanks for uploading.
@@Peekaboo-Kitty You need to read Romans 16, Paul had woman as decans , get yourself a break... I wont be surprise the GOD would use a woman to bring this world together!
My eyes were opened once I left the Catholic Church and became a Christian the Church teaches us God's words everyone can be God's priest and prophet and saints.
I feel that we all have a calling to God, it's just that sometimes, we do not know what it is. But our Father will make it apparent, at the right time, it is absolute rubbish to say that women cannot do that, as good as men!! Pray every day, this Coronavirus is also here for a reason, we will see what his will is. I am a 61-year-old woman who loves God, even though I do not attend church, He has been with me at the hardest of times and I know He will never leave me as I, him.
i have always believe that God is all around us , not only in church . so we can pray evertime,,, and the best way to live is to following the teachings he gave to us via the Bible..and other religious books . and we can start by loving our fellow creatures , there is a part of GOD in all his creations ,,, we have to see that divine spark
The Catholic Church has never stated that women are incapable of being as good as men in the priesthood soto making up sorties and if you don't go to church yourself why does it bother you?
you know ,,,, sometimes when i despair i tell myself that GOD does what does for a reason just i cannot see that reason .... in every problem there is a blessing ....as hard as that might be to really belive ,, it is true.!!
July 13th 2020-a truly remarkable movie. Excellent storyline and great cast. Guess we're only human after all. Thank you for sharing this with us. Watching and appreciative from the Fiji Islands.
Brilliant movie, so many women would really love to be part of the priesthood, times are changing and this is one big question that no one dares to tackle in a court of law. Thanks for the valuable and insightful story.
Separation of Church and State. The woman who wanted to become a priest, official Church teaching from very early on in the early Church stated women couldn’t become priests. This is the same in the Eastern Orthodox Church. Once the Church proclaims a doctrine ex cathedra eg...the Trinity, 2 natures of Christ etc then it is infallible and the teaching can never change. As with Martin Luther the reformer, the Church has already declared infallible dogma, they couldn’t change dogma. So the church had no choice but to declare him a heretic and excommunicate him. The state has zero authority over Church dogma and teaching. You can’t sue the Church to change its dogma. The State has no authority in ecclesiastical law.
I am a Sister, and I always understood this desire, but I also understand my vocation to make God's merciful love visible as a woman of God. This teaching is infallible and not dictated by secular law. The separation of Church and State has its virtues; we see this in education being able to refrain from dangerous teachings that are prevalent in our day. Pope John Paul II even researched the question if women could be priests. There is nothing in Scripture to support that feminist desire except that the apostles were all males, but the Blessed Mother is not a priestess but a Mother of her people. Jesus says from the cross to John "Behold your mother, woman behold your son." I believe that the vocation of the woman is to be a mother in how this possible. We cannot fantasize about our vocation. You can either accept that vocation that is God-given or reject it. This will always be the question, and I do not know what the answer will be in the future, but as for the present moment, every Religious woman has a vocation to be a mother in whatever way it is given to her. Caring for people is a privilege and a burden. There is enough loving work to do in God's vineyard without squabbling about supposed rights. No woman (Religious) has the right to demand to be a priest, but she can be a woman following Christ in his vineyard.
I hope that women with the same strong faith and commitment to God with all her heart given a chance to lead to educate and spread God's word, rather than an abusive Priests in so many ways.

But like every organisation some become too over the top.

4:50 that catholic priest says that a woman can't become a priest. The apostle Peter writes to the Christian believers that even a woman can pray to God just like a priest does. God has ears to hear women's prayers also. Thanks be to God.
Just because God hears everyone's prayer-- which isn't Scriptural but the opposite-- does not mean that women can be over men as leaders in the church.
@Charles Madu ...Biblically speaking, the 1st evangelist was a woman. Jesus appeared 1st to a woman upon resurrection AND He chided His apostles for not listening to the woman when she told them. Why would you oppress & belittle women when the actions of Jesus show you otherwise?
I think this movie shows the confict that exists among men, all around the world, around the issue of power. / If there is something that an honest woman among men can feel, it´s confusion. The things of the heart are subtle, as pride or selfishness. I believe she (it´s a movie) should have set herself free from her ideal image of the church and done the good she longed to do in any place that may have granted her this possiblity and/or help. / To have someone, who says to belong to a church, to bring that church to court to change their beliefs, is a contradiction. Either you stay to respect their beliefs, or you leave, as did Martin Luther, for both actions show your love for your convictions. Blessings.
Very well said even though I just started watching the movie. I always read comments to check if it's worth watching and if the quality of the audio is good. Thank you. God bless
How can anyone who believes in the doctrine of love and inclusive of All Peoples of the Earth ever, Catholic? Catholics have always kept Christians and ignorance. You don't need a mediator you've got a direct line. Wow follow the money.
@@robbinmeissner435 When you find the issues that aren´t according to the Bible or Jesus´ teachings, you already belong. It is possible to stay, believing in the Word, in Jesus Christ, in the Bible, in the Holy Ghost. When the church imposes itself (any church) over any belief or believer, one must be free to walk away and seek the truth by oneself.

The 2017 film “Created Equal” provides a platform to articulate several main arguments for changes in Catholic doctrine, discipline, and canon law. The movie tells the story of Sister Alejandra Bautista who is dismissed from her teaching position at an elementary school for allegedly encouraging students to advocate for admission of women to the clerical state. When confronted by the pastor of the parish school, Sister Alejandra professes that it is her desire to become ordained a Catholic Priest. The film juxtapositions canon law and civil discrimination law as a means to articulate many of the arguments and popular thoughts about this contentious topic. I appreciated the empathy portrayed for the protagonist Sister Alejandra and the position of the defense attorney Monsignor Enrico who represented Church teaching in the civil court proceedings. I think that many people in the world, both members of the Church and non-Catholic, would agree with Sister Alejandra and judge the matter by the principle that all people must be equally protected by the law. In the western world, equality before the law is one of the principles of classical liberalism that has given shape to our contemporary culture and civic legal system. Equality before the law is included in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and is enshrined in European and American thought. Equality, fairness, and justice are noble principles that are venerated both in the Church and State. The film brings the case of women’s ordination on the grounds of civil discrimination case for the sake of facilitating a change in Church teaching. This is the milieu of equality before the law legislation. From a canon law perspective, we can examine the rights and duties of the Christian Faithful compared to the civil judgments that seek to uphold the principle of equality under the law. The canon that is most referenced in the film is Can 1024, which states that a baptized male alone receives sacred ordination validly. The film never addresses the Catholic teaching of sacramental validity. During the court proceedings the petition to admit Sister Alejandra to the clerical state is an appeal to the argument of gender discrimination on behalf of the church. The film never touches on the sacramental aspects of matter and form which are detailed in Catholic theology and canon law. The film conflates Can. 1024 with Can. 1037 in regards to the discipline of clerical celibacy. Although the film does this in a subtle manner, the topics of sacramental validity and the discipline of clerical celibacy are entirely different matters. Each entail a specific origin, history, and development in the life of the Church and canon law. Church Canon Law 208 emphasizes a genuine equality of dignity and action among all Christ faithful. This principle is emphatically emphasized in the Vatican II documents of Lumen Gentium (32) and Gaudium et Spes (49, 61). Canon law commentators have reiterated that this principle of equality among the faithful should be viewed according to his or her own condition and office within the constitutional principles of the Church. (Fornes, p. 41, Exegetical Commentary on the Code of Canon Law Volume II/1 by Ernest Caparros) The radical equality under the law that the film advocates for does not congeal with the principle of personal freedom rooted in the sacrament of baptism. Every member of the Christian faithful, including Sister Alejandra, exists in different subjective juridical conditions that emanate from the single and unique constitutional condition of the faithful. (Fornes, p. 43, Ibid.) The filmmakers do not understand the constitutive structure of the Church and how equality is operative in the Church structure and guided by the font of divine revelation. The arguments against the Church’s understanding of divine revelation are simple and open the door to subjective interpretation of the entire deposit of Christian faith. The film gave a good overview of the program of priestly formation during the conversation between the pastor and Alejandra’s lawyer. In the courtroom testimony of the female psychiatrist, the process of reviewing candidates for seminary entrance also reveals the process of investigation of candidates for ordination covered in cann. 1050 - 1052. One area the film did not explore was the duties and obligations for Sister Alejandra in her state in life. Was she a professed member of a society of apostolic life or had she professed vows or the evangelical counsels? She dressed in a religious habit in the beginning of the film. I wonder if she was a professed sister and subject to religious rule of life? Where was she in religious formation and who was her competent authority? What recourse did she have to her religious superior? If she was a religious sister, her actions should be guided by cann. 573 - 606 according to her state in life. The film also fails to articulate the freedom Alejandra has to seek a theological formation and education. I have personally received instruction from women theological faculty members who hold doctorates and pontifical accreditation from all over the Catholic world. There is nothing that would hinder Sister Alejandra from embarking on theological formation. This is something the film does not get correct. What I like most about the film is how it portrays the ignorance of Catholic doctrine by those who wish to deconstruct and change it. I think that the film was empathetic to Sister Alejandra’s arguments, but it does not properly portray the reality of Church teaching. The film was written from a polemic approach and featured language that characterized entire populations of the Christian faithful in an uncharitable manner. Members of the lay faithful, religious sisters, catholic civic leaders, and clergy are portrayed with little empathy or mutual respect in the film. The film incorporated a few lines that are frequently used by protagonist of women’s ordination. Namely that there is a “stained-glass ceiling” in the Church, the only thing preventing ordination is “biological gender”, and that members of the church who have a dissenting opinion are “defrocked”. The term “defrocked” is not a legal canonical term and is not used to describe the loss of the clerical state in the Catholic Church. I do know and have encountered many people who hold positions like Sister Alejandra in the film. I think this film helps us recognize the ways we can improve the misunderstanding of Catholic teaching and offer more opportunity to share the doctrine of the faith for all. It is important for us to dialogue with and encounter others about these important matters.
It is so refreshing to see the word equal yet it's not but the movie made us understand the stand of church and its believer a debate continued but still by faith and mercy of God we do accept his commandment with the guidance of the holy spirit.
Psalm 91 1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. 2 This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him. 3 For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease. 4 He will cover you with his feathers. He will shelter you with his wings. His faithful promises are your armor and protection. 5 Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night, nor the arrow that flies in the day. 6 Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness, nor the disaster that strikes at midday. 7 Though a thousand fall at your side, though ten thousand are dying around you, these evils will not touch you. 8 Just open your eyes, and see how the wicked are punished. 9 If you make the Lord your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, 10 no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. 11 For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go. 12 They will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone. 13 You will trample upon lions and cobras; you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet! 14 The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. 15 When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. 16 I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.”
If you love me, keep my commandments. That from the mouth of the Messiah...to all who claim Him as our Savior. Pullers at the oars, not riders in the boat...that's what is needed.
*_Very true Amen Psalms 37:1_3 Don not fret because of the evil doers or envious of those do wrong (2) for like grass they will soon wither like green plants they will die away (3) Trust in the Lord and do good dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture._*
The Catholic Church has been using that excuse that Jesus Apostles were all men for years, what they fail to mention however is God made one woman , a judge and leader over Israel (Deborah), he caused another to save the lives of the Jewish people (Esther), he caused another to prevent David from shedding innocent blood (Abigail). He came to a woman first after his ressurection (Mary Magdalene). He also rewarded three women whose courageous actions unknowingly to them placed them into the bloodline of the Messiah, (Rahab, Tamar, Ruth). The Lord puts women in prominent places all the time, the Catholic Church however has always been far to blind to see that. Also they have always did things they benefit them above everything else. The fact that we can read a bible in our own languages today was built on many lives lost and blood shed by the Catholic Church. Men like William Tyndale and John Huss. They murdered Joan of Arc and then reversed their decision and made her a saint when it suited their narative. They made a murderer, Sir Thomas More, a man who killed several reformers, who slandered and completely ruined the reputation of a good man who died when More himself was only 7 years of age a saint all because Henry VIII of England had broken off England from their grip and decided to think for himself. Think about it people.
Billijo Maynard please do more and better research, the Catholic Church honors and respect the women in the church. Just think....The Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus she is number ONE woman in our beautiful church. The women play a very important role in the church. This movies always portray The Catholic Church as the bad institution. I can name only a few very important women in the life of Jesus Christ, Mary Magdalena, the Samaritan women at the wheel, the women cured from an hemorrhage, Mary and Marta. All this superficial movies just talk about modernist, progressive gender equality, etc, etc. The laws of the world are way different of the laws of God.

There are many great sinners in the church, however there are also many very holy people as well. Both religious people and lay people. The wheat co-existing with the darnel until the time of the harvest.The Church is not to be judged by some bad personalities in it. It's teachings are vouched safe by Jesus through the Holy Spirit. This is HIs promise.
А woman can minister and preach with her life! All women have different talents. Let's read our Bibles and try to be like these godly women described in the Old and the New testament, serving God with all our heart, praying that the Holy Spirit will guide us and win souls for His Kingdom!
Had council taken the time to read the New Testament, they would have learned that there had been several women who spread the teachings of Christ for the early Church.

So these same catholic businesses don’t mind using their influence to stop this woman from becoming a priest. Another group says that the church and state are separate, yet when the priests rape they can be sued. They also take my money which has the words ‘in god we trust’ yet they maintain they are separate from the state. Then why do they invoke the tax laws to build and buy most cities? Frankly I worked for a Catholic Church before and the men live lovely, we had a personal chef working in the priory who made lunch and dinner for the priests, lunch would be something like shrimp bisque with homemade bread, dinner was usually steaks or lobster, the wine and liquor flowed after 1pm and two of the priests weren’t allowed to do mass because of moral sins “read rape of a child.” Yet they ate lovely and ordered off of amazon all day. Why aren’’t their women priests? Yes I realize this is a movie but these folks have no problems using force, bribes etc to be asses to this woman and her lawyer. Is this what the Bible is about? Becoming Hitler, a despot, a dictator or even a one sided Trump? I dare anyone to call their church right now and ask for help. They may have planes and limos etc but help will not coming your way
It is a great illustration of the debate for women to be ordained and an opening to what still has to change. It will change. We are not the centre of the universe. Evolution is part of our sentient process. We are 2020 years from the birth of Jesus - and His Christ consciousness was never bound by the body, was it? Didn't He gave up His body to teach us? The social conventions of the time pushed many human beings down, and He recognized this injustice and soulless treatment. In His compassion He accepted them, saw through to their souls. Why should mere social conventions deny soul or our boundless consciousness and the possibility of benefiting all beings? Why deny a human being her will to share His compassion as a priest, as a bishop --- as a pope in the body of a woman? Her will is pure. Hasn't the sacred heart always been beyond skin?
Superb movie, the actors portrayed their characters with grace and respect, further more the film explored the reason why woman are not ordained into the catholic priesthood. Food for deep thought!!
To be a priest is never be a "right" of anyone. Even one is a male, baptized and confirmed in the Catholic Church, one cannot claim the right to be ordained as a priest. The priesthood is not like a qualification; if you pass all examinations to be a doctor, you can become a doctor. Furthermore, anyone can say that he or she feels the calling to be a priest or a nun or a lawyer, etc..but how to verify the call, which is the discernment.

I'm just at the beginning of this but it is very intriguing and well acted. I want to recommend to anyone here to look at a wonderful movie Spotlight (2015) - award winning and a Catholic Church expose from a different righteous angle. Let me slip this in: ALL the world's religions as institutions arguably are comparably discouraging of true faith and spirituality. Maybe Rastafarianism is an exception, I haven't checked.

@Paul Daystar Does that mean that she was acceptable? I think not. Pius 12th was also a pope, and a ferocious Nazi who threatened various Catholic clergy with excommunication if they attempted to help the Jews. Did being the Pope make him correct? I think not.
Well, surely, you need the church. The church is the people not the building. And as the Word says “do not forsake the gathering of the brethren as the manner of some is”
This particular nun wants to be a priest. Proclaiming the word of God as a nun is not enough for her. She just does not realize how well she does as a nun
Watching this movie just made me realize how the church lives a lavish life. This to me is wrong. What is the purpose of living such a lavish life? Jesus never did.
Suzanne Leigh, same here. Born and raised Catholic. I stopped going to Church when I noticed more and more priest we’re getting involved in politics and other criminal activity. I just pray to God directly. One on one.
I am glad to see this movie that our Catholic Church stand strong on the principle of only and only male person can be priest but not the females. If this nun wants to preach the word of God she can always do so even if she is a nun. Therefore if she is a Catholic she has to follow the church principles.thankyou
Amazing movie, i know so many priest that keep misleading people, when you see them in church everything looks perfect but inside they even have more girlfriends than a play boy. Should we talk about other bad stuffs. Please is not by force to serve God!! Let the house of God be open to everyone and the priest be open to anyone who is qualified. My opinion ✌️
@rapy world Very well said, and I love your opinion because you clearly state that no-one if forced to serve God, but his house is open to those who choose to do so. I'm an atheist, but that doesn't mean I'm anti-religion of any kind, or that I'm a bad person. Peace...;-)

Your reply makes me want to watch the movie. However, I'm really interested in your name forJesus. I'm reading a book in which Jesus is channeled and in that book he has said that his favorite way of being referred to is Yeshua which you probably know is his Hebrew name and what he was called in his lifetime 2000 years ago.
TwinkyStar A bird cannot fly with one wing. Through Union Creation was effected. The Savior's dictum that when two are joined everything becomes possible explains a lot possibly about Catholicism's perennial failures.
A wonderful movie! What the Church" missed in all this, is : 1. An apostle is one SENT. 2. Jesus SENT Mary Magdalene to the very apostles HE appointed, making her an apostle to the apostles! (John 20:17) Right there the whole male priesthood doctrine falls right into hell, where it belongs. May the Church (the true Church) wake up to the fact that Jesus came to set humanity FREE. (Gal. 5:1)

Yes. In the upper room there were 120 disciples waiting...several named are women. The Holy Spirit fell upon them like tongues of fire. Etc. He also decides who gets gifts...healing, deliverance, teaching, prophesy etc. Women not excluded. Read of His relationship with women throughout the Bible. Shalom.
I was captivated by the arguments why women can not be a priest. It was not precisely written in the bible but you have to consider that a priest (a male) is the head of the local church, while a family as a domestic church, wherein the father (a male) is appointed to be the head of the family, not the mother. Both have different important roles in the domestic church. In the same way in a the bigger community, the church.
True. The Bible speaks of the nations being ruled by women and children, it even says that the men are as women. This is coming true and is the reason that we are falling apart as a nation: too many women ruling and really young boys are acting just like them. Women rule as they see fit, women just think different, and for that reason they need men, and for so many reasons. I often wonder about female pastors: if they're running the show, where are all the men. Though I also understand, and remember when most men were real men, even in the household, now it's mostly just 'yes dear' and just to keep the peace men let the women be the head of households. Men are now becoming less then what GOD created and what He required of a man: could it be that feminist and the women in general are doing a very good job at removing masculinity from men (because they want it). Masculinity is the main ingredient that makes a man.
i wanted to be a pastor before but my father stopped me by doing so even am already accepted to enter the seminary. he said , the church should be lead by men only like how Christ as the head of the church and fathers as the head of the family. Paternity!!!....

Technically since the Government cannot make any rule prohibiting the free exercise of religion and since the Catholic Church is practicing their religion by not letting her become a priest nothing can be done.
A powerful African pastor said something that I have always believed in my heart and soul..."When anyone and especially clergyman or woman fight to the Death to uphold a title and must be honored according to that title...Then it is no longer about uplifting or representing God...it is about uplifting you...( Satan in the Flesh)
Wise words because then its about ego...good movie but we have to be careful when we want mankind to provide titles over just being content with what God desires...sometimes what ppl think is God's will is their own ambitions
Awesome film, all the actors are top shelf above the manufactured phonies in Hollyweird. Lou Diamond Phillips is way above the standard in acting and I'm never disappointed. Thanks for sharing...
why is it an awesome film - because it is anti-Catholic enough??
I work in a male dominated environment and to me this movie hits " right at the core" of my existence. Who has the right to decide on my life/career, choices/paths. It has been a long hard struggle but by the grace of God "I'm still standing". I have been placed on suspensions, didn't receive a salary for sometime, but by His grace I survived. Remembering that this wont/ was not to be my first disciplinary action, I taught I would die. Not realising it would not be the end of that. I would have to suffer a number of "disciplinary actions against me, by the institute I work for bcos I refuse to conform to the "norm". God has blessed me with wisdom/discernment, and the understanding that I am here to do HIS works and to change/challenge the "status quo" it has not been a easy walk but I have done so by His Grace. So to everybody that has been told "its not done this way, its a mans world, don't rock the apple cart........... I say NO..... If God felt I was not "suppose to", I believe my heavenly Father would not have seen me tru all those tribulations. So do not let ANYBODY tell you NO, because if God be4 you, who can be against you " the world perhaps" but my Father in heaven has the final say....... TO GOD BE THE GLORY

@@flower5396 A LOT of us do. The TRUTH is in the Catholic Bible - it's GOD's WORD. Not man's. Big difference.
@@flower5396 ..ppl who know the difference read God's Word for themselves. And it doesn't have to b a catholic (said w/ derision) Bible. New king James version is good as well as th amplified Bible. Both are available in the youversion Bible app.
@@flower5396 The difference is easy to distinguish: God said it, that settles it. It isn't what man claims God said, it's what the Scriptures say God said. As for which Scriptures-- God is powerful enough to keep His Word safe in any King James Bible-- understandable enough when diligently studied.

It says in bible that women cannot be head of church... women to be silent in church too. Women cannot be head pastor, but they can be Sunday school teacher...
I never leave comments, but after seeing this film, which if I am correct, is fictional, I would have MANY things to say. Jesus said, "Be one as my Father and I are one." The film portrays what will obligatorily happen in the Catholic Church eventually. Seminaries are literally empty because young men are not joining.Why? Each one answer herself/himself. Jesus DID NOT establish A church while He was here on Earth. Denominations DO NOT SAVE. We are saved by the grace of God. As for the film, I think it was very necessary to do something like this. Let's all read up on our history and when reading the Book of books, ask the Holy Spirit for discernment and understanding so as to not have our own interpretation of the Holy Scriptures. I enjoyed the film very much. God bless!
Jesus DID establish Church. Read Gospels! Seminaries are empty only as much as the Church dropped ball on discipline and relaxed formation and liturgy. Traditional priestly societies are full of young men. I think USA in particular is on trend where so called Traditional Latin Mass parishes are going to outgrown regular parishes. The only issues is that pope and cardinals/bishops in power don't want to recognize post second Vatican approach as failure. Faithful priests get treated harshly, because they don't use pretentious clerical buzzwords and platitudes instead of traditional practices and discipline.

"And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven." Matthew 16:18-19
"And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And seeing him they adored: but some doubted. And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. Going therefore, teach ye all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. And behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world."
Matthew 28:16-20
Nowhere is Jesus Christ recorded as saying, "...upon this Bible...", or "...give the Bible to all nations..." He said TEACH. He gave men the keys of the kingdom of Heaven. He gave authority to teach nations, to men of His CHURCH. Denominations? No. Jesus Christ did not authorise a multiplicity of differing churches. He built one only. And He built it upon His appointed Apostle, Peter.

@@jamesking5508 What is your point? Do you mean to say that Christ was not God? Or that the Bible is not Divinely inspired and therefore not infallible? Or perhaps you suggest that God contradicts Himself, referring at times to 'the Church', and at others to 'the churches'. If none of these is true...the obvious conclusion is that physical assemblies or parishes are meant when the Bible refers to 'churches' (rather than to a multiplicity of denominations or 'Churches').

This movie is surprisingly good. I was concerned at the opening that the film would seem low budget and the characters would be too cliche. I am happy to have been wrong in my assumptions.
I came here because of Aaron Tveit (I’m a musical theater nerd) and Lou Diamond Phillips but the breakout star is the woman playing Alejandra. She is wonderful! I cared for her character deeply and appreciated how she was both powerful and feminine.
The movie doesn’t make this issue easy and there is no clear villain (other than some random unstable guy). Both the church and Alejandra have a point to be made and that deserve to be heard.
Well done!
I just stumbled upon a trailer for this film. Aaron Tveit and Lou Diamond Phillips are who brought me here also. Two of my very favorites.
I don’t remember seeing or hearing anything about this film when it was released. It must have been kept very low key. Not much advertising.
The music, and piano playing in this film is breathtaking, beautiful people and great acting.

i have always believe that God is all around us , not only in church . so we can pray evertime,,, and the best way to live is to following the teachings he gave to us via the Bible..and other religious books . and we can start by loving our fellow creatures , there is a part of GOD in all his creations ,,, we have to see that divine spark
The Catholic Church has never stated that women are incapable of being as good as men in the priesthood soto making up sorties and if you don't go to church yourself why does it bother you?
you know ,,,, sometimes when i despair i tell myself that GOD does what does for a reason just i cannot see that reason ....
in every problem there is a blessing ....as hard as that might be to really belive ,, it is true.!!

Wonderful movie. Mary Magdalene was the first preacher who preached “Jesus Christ has risen, He is no more in the grave “.
She did not preach, just conveyed a report of what she saw. That does not make her a Preacher. Nice try.
Its better to be a law abiding atheist
And Jesus chided the men for not listening to her!
I prefer them to be a couple. Tommy had risked his job just for her. As for Tommy's character, he deserves a payback of love.
Brilliant movie, so many women would really love to be part of the priesthood, times are changing and this is one big question that no one dares to tackle in a court of law. Thanks for the valuable and insightful story.
Separation of Church and State. The woman who wanted to become a priest, official Church teaching from very early on in the early Church stated women couldn’t become priests. This is the same in the Eastern Orthodox Church.
Once the Church proclaims a doctrine ex cathedra eg...the Trinity, 2 natures of Christ etc then it is infallible and the teaching can never change.
As with Martin Luther the reformer, the Church has already declared infallible dogma, they couldn’t change dogma. So the church had no choice but to declare him a heretic and excommunicate him.
The state has zero authority over Church dogma and teaching. You can’t sue the Church to change its dogma.
The State has no authority in ecclesiastical law.
I am a Sister, and I always understood this desire, but I also understand my vocation to make God's merciful love visible as a woman of God. This teaching is infallible and not dictated by secular law. The separation of Church and State has its virtues; we see this in education being able to refrain from dangerous teachings that are prevalent in our day. Pope John Paul II even researched the question if women could be priests. There is nothing in Scripture to support that feminist desire except that the apostles were all males, but the Blessed Mother is not a priestess but a Mother of her people. Jesus says from the cross to John "Behold your mother, woman behold your son." I believe that the vocation of the woman is to be a mother in how this possible. We cannot fantasize about our vocation. You can either accept that vocation that is God-given or reject it. This will always be the question, and I do not know what the answer will be in the future, but as for the present moment, every Religious woman has a vocation to be a mother in whatever way it is given to her. Caring for people is a privilege and a burden. There is enough loving work to do in God's vineyard without squabbling about supposed rights. No woman (Religious) has the right to demand to be a priest, but she can be a woman following Christ in his vineyard.
I hope that women with the same strong faith and commitment to God with all her heart given a chance to lead to educate and spread God's word, rather than an abusive Priests in so many ways.

I Unfortunately have Found VERY MANY Catholic Practices that Are Nothing More than Their Personal Beliefs & Have Absolutely NO Direct Connections TO THE BIBLE WHAT SO EVER!
BUT I'm not here to Start an Argument, I'm Just Stating a FACT!
I still believe in the right for ANYONE to Practice their Religion as they see fit!

Incredible movie,really well done,all the acting and the story it self.Loui Diamond Philipe look good as a bishop
4:50 that catholic priest says that a woman can't become a priest.
The apostle Peter writes to the Christian believers that even a woman can pray to God just like a priest does.
God has ears to hear women's prayers also.
Thanks be to God.
Just because God hears everyone's prayer-- which isn't Scriptural but the opposite-- does not mean that women can be over men as leaders in the church.
@Charles Madu ...Biblically speaking, the 1st evangelist was a woman. Jesus appeared 1st to a woman upon resurrection AND He chided His apostles for not listening to the woman when she told them. Why would you oppress & belittle women when the actions of Jesus show you otherwise?
I think this movie shows the confict that exists among men, all around the world, around the issue of power. / If there is something that an honest woman among men can feel, it´s confusion. The things of the heart are subtle, as pride or selfishness. I believe she (it´s a movie) should have set herself free from her ideal image of the church and done the good she longed to do in any place that may have granted her this possiblity and/or help. / To have someone, who says to belong to a church, to bring that church to court to change their beliefs, is a contradiction. Either you stay to respect their beliefs, or you leave, as did Martin Luther, for both actions show your love for your convictions. Blessings.
Very well said even though I just started watching the movie. I always read comments to check if it's worth watching and if the quality of the audio is good. Thank you. God bless
How can anyone who believes in the doctrine of love and inclusive of All Peoples of the Earth ever, Catholic? Catholics have always kept Christians and ignorance. You don't need a mediator you've got a direct line. Wow follow the money.

@@robbinmeissner435 When you find the issues that aren´t according to the Bible or Jesus´ teachings, you already belong. It is possible to stay, believing in the Word, in Jesus Christ, in the Bible, in the Holy Ghost.

I like the judge. He is a fair man.
The 2017 film “Created Equal” provides a platform to articulate several main arguments for changes in Catholic doctrine, discipline, and canon law. The movie tells the story of Sister Alejandra Bautista who is dismissed from her teaching position at an elementary school for allegedly encouraging students to advocate for admission of women to the clerical state. When confronted by the pastor of the parish school, Sister Alejandra professes that it is her desire to become ordained a Catholic Priest. The film juxtapositions canon law and civil discrimination law as a means to articulate many of the arguments and popular thoughts about this contentious topic. I appreciated the empathy portrayed for the protagonist Sister Alejandra and the position of the defense attorney Monsignor Enrico who represented Church teaching in the civil court proceedings.
I think that many people in the world, both members of the Church and non-Catholic, would agree with Sister Alejandra and judge the matter by the principle that all people must be equally protected by the law. In the western world, equality before the law is one of the principles of classical liberalism that has given shape to our contemporary culture and civic legal system. Equality before the law is included in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and is enshrined in European and American thought. Equality, fairness, and justice are noble principles that are venerated both in the Church and State. The film brings the case of women’s ordination on the grounds of civil discrimination case for the sake of facilitating a change in Church teaching. This is the milieu of equality before the law legislation. From a canon law perspective, we can examine the rights and duties of the Christian Faithful compared to the civil judgments that seek to uphold the principle of equality under the law.
The canon that is most referenced in the film is Can 1024, which states that a baptized male alone receives sacred ordination validly. The film never addresses the Catholic teaching of sacramental validity. During the court proceedings the petition to admit Sister Alejandra to the clerical state is an appeal to the argument of gender discrimination on behalf of the church. The film never touches on the sacramental aspects of matter and form which are detailed in Catholic theology and canon law. The film conflates Can. 1024 with Can. 1037 in regards to the discipline of clerical celibacy. Although the film does this in a subtle manner, the topics of sacramental validity and the discipline of clerical celibacy are entirely different matters. Each entail a specific origin, history, and development in the life of the Church and canon law.
Church Canon Law 208 emphasizes a genuine equality of dignity and action among all Christ faithful. This principle is emphatically emphasized in the Vatican II documents of Lumen Gentium (32) and Gaudium et Spes (49, 61). Canon law commentators have reiterated that this principle of equality among the faithful should be viewed according to his or her own condition and office within the constitutional principles of the Church. (Fornes, p. 41, Exegetical Commentary on the Code of Canon Law Volume II/1 by Ernest Caparros) The radical equality under the law that the film advocates for does not congeal with the principle of personal freedom rooted in the sacrament of baptism. Every member of the Christian faithful, including Sister Alejandra, exists in different subjective juridical conditions that emanate from the single and unique constitutional condition of the faithful. (Fornes, p. 43, Ibid.) The filmmakers do not understand the constitutive structure of the Church and how equality is operative in the Church structure and guided by the font of divine revelation. The arguments against the Church’s understanding of divine revelation are simple and open the door to subjective interpretation of the entire deposit of Christian faith.
The film gave a good overview of the program of priestly formation during the conversation between the pastor and Alejandra’s lawyer. In the courtroom testimony of the female psychiatrist, the process of reviewing candidates for seminary entrance also reveals the process of investigation of candidates for ordination covered in cann. 1050 - 1052. One area the film did not explore was the duties and obligations for Sister Alejandra in her state in life. Was she a professed member of a society of apostolic life or had she professed vows or the evangelical counsels? She dressed in a religious habit in the beginning of the film. I wonder if she was a professed sister and subject to religious rule of life? Where was she in religious formation and who was her competent authority? What recourse did she have to her religious superior? If she was a religious sister, her actions should be guided by cann. 573 - 606 according to her state in life. The film also fails to articulate the freedom Alejandra has to seek a theological formation and education. I have personally received instruction from women theological faculty members who hold doctorates and pontifical accreditation from all over the Catholic world. There is nothing that would hinder Sister Alejandra from embarking on theological formation. This is something the film does not get correct.
What I like most about the film is how it portrays the ignorance of Catholic doctrine by those who wish to deconstruct and change it. I think that the film was empathetic to Sister Alejandra’s arguments, but it does not properly portray the reality of Church teaching. The film was written from a polemic approach and featured language that characterized entire populations of the Christian faithful in an uncharitable manner. Members of the lay faithful, religious sisters, catholic civic leaders, and clergy are portrayed with little empathy or mutual respect in the film. The film incorporated a few lines that are frequently used by protagonist of women’s ordination. Namely that there is a “stained-glass ceiling” in the Church, the only thing preventing ordination is “biological gender”, and that members of the church who have a dissenting opinion are “defrocked”. The term “defrocked” is not a legal canonical term and is not used to describe the loss of the clerical state in the Catholic Church. I do know and have encountered many people who hold positions like Sister Alejandra in the film. I think this film helps us recognize the ways we can improve the misunderstanding of Catholic teaching and offer more opportunity to share the doctrine of the faith for all. It is important for us to dialogue with and encounter others about these important matters.
It is so refreshing to see the word equal yet it's not but the movie made us understand the stand of church and its believer a debate continued but still by faith and mercy of God we do accept his commandment with the guidance of the holy spirit.
Fantastic movie! Lou Diamond Phillips just gets better with age! Great acting all around! And timely subject matter. Loved it! Thanks for the upload!
They ALL gamble, 2.
Psalm 91
1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 This I declare about the Lord:
He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;
he is my God, and I trust him.
3 For he will rescue you from every trap
and protect you from deadly disease.
4 He will cover you with his feathers.
He will shelter you with his wings.
His faithful promises are your armor and protection.
5 Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,
nor the arrow that flies in the day.
6 Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness,
nor the disaster that strikes at midday.
7 Though a thousand fall at your side,
though ten thousand are dying around you,
these evils will not touch you.
8 Just open your eyes,
and see how the wicked are punished.
9 If you make the Lord your refuge,
if you make the Most High your shelter,
10 no evil will conquer you;
no plague will come near your home.
11 For he will order his angels
to protect you wherever you go.
12 They will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.
13 You will trample upon lions and cobras;
you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!
14 The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me.
I will protect those who trust in my name.
15 When they call on me, I will answer;
I will be with them in trouble.
I will rescue and honor them.
16 I will reward them with a long life
and give them my salvation.”
One of my favorite Psalm. I have my bible open on that scripture...
If you love me, keep my commandments. That from the mouth of the Messiah...to all who claim Him as our Savior. Pullers at the oars, not riders in the boat...that's what is needed.
*_Very true Amen Psalms 37:1_3 Don not fret because of the evil doers or envious of those do wrong (2) for like grass they will soon wither like green plants they will die away (3) Trust in the Lord and do good dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture._*

The Catholic Church has been using that excuse that Jesus Apostles were all men for years, what they fail to mention however is God made one woman , a judge and leader over Israel (Deborah), he caused another to save the lives of the Jewish people (Esther), he caused another to prevent David from shedding innocent blood (Abigail). He came to a woman first after his ressurection (Mary Magdalene). He also rewarded three women whose courageous actions unknowingly to them placed them into the bloodline of the Messiah, (Rahab, Tamar, Ruth). The Lord puts women in prominent places all the time, the Catholic Church however has always been far to blind to see that. Also they have always did things they benefit them above everything else. The fact that we can read a bible in our own languages today was built on many lives lost and blood shed by the Catholic Church. Men like William Tyndale and John Huss. They murdered Joan of Arc and then reversed their decision and made her a saint when it suited their narative. They made a murderer, Sir Thomas More, a man who killed several reformers, who slandered and completely ruined the reputation of a good man who died when More himself was only 7 years of age a saint all because Henry VIII of England had broken off England from their grip and decided to think for himself. Think about it people.

Billijo Maynard please do more and better research, the Catholic Church honors and respect the women in the church. Just think....The Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus she is number ONE woman in our beautiful church. The women play a very important role in the church. This movies always portray The Catholic Church as the bad institution. I can name only a few very important women in the life of Jesus Christ, Mary Magdalena, the Samaritan women at the wheel, the women cured from an hemorrhage, Mary and Marta. All this superficial movies just talk about modernist, progressive gender equality, etc, etc.
The laws of the world are way different of the laws of God.
@@rudikaryadi5896 Here's your citations:
God using women:
Luke 2:36 - Prophetess Anna
Romans 16:1-2 - Sister Phoebe
Jeremiah 9:17-20 - Mourning & Cunning WOMEN
9 Prophetesses:
Miriam... Exodus 15:20; Micah 6:4
Deborah... Judges 4:4
Huldah... 2 Kings 22:14; 2 Chron. 34:22
Isaiah's wife... Isaiah 8:3
Anna... Luke 2:36
The Four Daughters of Phillip... Acts 21:8-9
Other women also prophesied, but weren't described as prophetess:
Rachel... Genesis 30:24
Hannah... 1 Samuel 2:1-10
Abigail... 1 Samuel 25:3-42
Queen Esther... Esther 7:1-6
Elisabeth... Luke 1:41-45
Mary, the mother of Jesus... Luke 1:46-55
Two of these women above spoke up to save their lives & their families. IF they would have kept silent, they would have died with their families. Their names were: Abigail & Queen Esther. The example of Abigail was when she *went against her own husband* because he was evil. If she had not spoken with King David, she would have died along with her husband for the evil he had done. The LORD took revenge & smote Nabal her husband: 1 Samuel 25:38. And King David married his wife after the Lord God killed him vs.39-42.
Of the nine female prophets mentioned in scripture:
- One was a widow (Anna)
- Four were virgins at the time (Philip's daughters)
- Three were married (Deborah, Huldah, and Isaiah's wife)
- One do not have their marital status mentioned (Miriam)
- The Jewish Talmud also adds Sarah & Esther to the list of prophetesses
Joel 2:28-29 tells us that in the end time there will be an increase in both men and *WOMEN* prophets.
Acts 2:17 And it will come to pass in the Last Days, said God, I will pour out of my Spirit on ALL flesh: and your sons & your *DAUGHTERS* will prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams
Acts 2:18 And on my servants & on my *HANDMAIDENS* I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they will prophesy.

The catholic church and that young lady dont know the instructions that God through Jesus Christ let in the Bible.
I am quite sure, what would happen, IF Jesus would return and tried to talk some sense into the church.
There are many great sinners in the church, however there are also many very holy people as well. Both religious people and lay people. The wheat co-existing with the darnel until the time of the harvest.The Church is not to be judged by some bad personalities in it. It's teachings are vouched safe by Jesus through the Holy Spirit. This is HIs promise.
I wish this won't end. I love it
We need part 2
А woman can minister and preach with her life! All women have different talents. Let's read our Bibles and try to be like these godly women described in the Old and the New testament, serving God with all our heart, praying that the Holy Spirit will guide us and win souls for His Kingdom!
It says in the bible that's women cannot be head pastor or leader in church. They are to remain silent.
Had council taken the time to read the New Testament, they would have learned that there had been several women who spread the teachings of Christ for the early Church.

Do you have to be a C priest to be able to help others or do the will of God? No. So, leave the C Church if you disagree, as simple as that.
God has given you everything you need to get everything you want. Through Faith. Church is one way.
So these same catholic businesses don’t mind using their influence to stop this woman from becoming a priest. Another group says that the church and state are separate, yet when the priests rape they can be sued. They also take my money which has the words ‘in god we trust’ yet they maintain they are separate from the state. Then why do they invoke the tax laws to build and buy most cities?
Frankly I worked for a Catholic Church before and the men live lovely, we had a personal chef working in the priory who made lunch and dinner for the priests, lunch would be something like shrimp bisque with homemade bread, dinner was usually steaks or lobster, the wine and liquor flowed after 1pm and two of the priests weren’t allowed to do mass because of moral sins “read rape of a child.” Yet they ate lovely and ordered off of amazon all day.
Why aren’’t their women priests?
Yes I realize this is a movie but these folks have no problems using force, bribes etc to be asses to this woman and her lawyer. Is this what the Bible is about? Becoming Hitler, a despot, a dictator or even a one sided Trump?
I dare anyone to call their church right now and ask for help. They may have planes and limos etc but help will not coming your way
It is a great illustration of the debate for women to be ordained and an opening to what still has to change. It will change. We are not the centre of the universe. Evolution is part of our sentient process. We are 2020 years from the birth of Jesus - and His Christ consciousness was never bound by the body, was it? Didn't He gave up His body to teach us? The social conventions of the time pushed many human beings down, and He recognized this injustice and soulless treatment. In His compassion He accepted them, saw through to their souls. Why should mere social conventions deny soul or our boundless consciousness and the possibility of benefiting all beings? Why deny a human being her will to share His compassion as a priest, as a bishop --- as a pope in the body of a woman? Her will is pure. Hasn't the sacred heart always been beyond skin?
The priests claim that they represent god, as much as politicians claim they represent the people.
Yes Indeed, good call!
And both are full of BS.
There are allot of bad politicians and bad priests. There are also allot of good politicians and priests. Nothing is absolute one way or the other.
Covert Geopolitics I hear ya!
I agree!
Superb movie, the actors portrayed their characters with grace and respect, further more the film explored the reason why woman are not ordained into the catholic priesthood. Food for deep thought!!
To be a priest is never be a "right" of anyone. Even one is a male, baptized and confirmed in the Catholic Church, one cannot claim the right to be ordained as a priest. The priesthood is not like a qualification; if you pass all examinations to be a doctor, you can become a doctor. Furthermore, anyone can say that he or she feels the calling to be a priest or a nun or a lawyer, etc..but how to verify the call, which is the discernment.

I believe it's James 2:17In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
I'm just at the beginning of this but it is very intriguing and well acted. I want to recommend to anyone here to look at a wonderful movie Spotlight (2015) - award winning and a Catholic Church expose from a different righteous angle. Let me slip this in: ALL the world's religions as institutions arguably are comparably discouraging of true faith and spirituality. Maybe Rastafarianism is an exception, I haven't checked.

I am glad I know you do not need the church to have access to God.
Jesus ministered away from the church and said,"I'm the church." Clearly a church isn't all of a building...
Well, surely, you need the church. The church is the people not the building. And as the Word says “do not forsake the gathering of the brethren as the manner of some is”

This particular nun wants to be a priest. Proclaiming the word of God as a nun is not enough for her. She just does not realize how well she does as a nun
The concept of this movie is sister alliandre wanted to open the door for her young students dream of becoming a priest
...and she succeed , perhaps there will be a part 2
A new piece of work, and entirely brave.. BRAVO
Watching this movie just made me realize how the church lives a lavish life. This to me is wrong. What is the purpose of living such a lavish life? Jesus never did.
That is a very true assessment. As a Christian, I am ashamed of what the "church" has done in the name of God. Which is why I rarely go to church.

I am glad to see this movie that our Catholic Church stand strong on the principle of only and only male person can be priest but not the females. If this nun wants to preach the word of God she can always do so even if she is a nun. Therefore if she is a Catholic she has to follow the church principles.thankyou

Very well said, and I love your opinion because you clearly state that no-one if forced to serve God, but his house is open to those who choose to do so. I'm an atheist, but that doesn't mean I'm anti-religion of any kind, or that I'm a bad person. Peace...;-)
Not interested in the constant Ad promoting purchases from the US Mint. Besides the annoying Ads, this is not a bad movie to watch and enjoy. Thank you.
Beautiful, powerful and true to life. I enjoyed this movie.
I am a Christian but not a Roman Catholic follower. I enjoyed the movie Immensely.

Butterfly Effect! Her little sacrifice will cause ripples that manifest into waves which bring about change. Reminds me of Jeshua!
Your reply makes me want to watch the movie. However, I'm really interested in your name forJesus. I'm reading a book in which Jesus is channeled and in that book he has said that his favorite way of being referred to is Yeshua which you probably know is his Hebrew name and what he was called in his lifetime 2000 years ago.
TwinkyStar
A bird cannot fly with one wing.
Through Union Creation was effected.
The Savior's dictum that when two are joined everything becomes possible explains a lot possibly about Catholicism's perennial failures.

Looks like little Twinky Star is a misogynist, as well as a Catholic fanatic.....YUK!!!
A wonderful movie!
What the Church" missed in all this, is :
1. An apostle is one SENT.
2. Jesus SENT Mary Magdalene to the very apostles HE appointed, making her an apostle to the apostles! (John 20:17)
Right there the whole male priesthood doctrine falls right into hell, where it belongs.
May the Church (the true Church) wake up to the fact that Jesus came to set humanity FREE. (Gal. 5:1)
Excellent movie
This movie was really great, enthralling to the very end! Thanks for sharing.
With free movies like this, why need to spend cash for entertainment!?!
Thanks for posting. One of the best movies I've seen in a while.
Brilliant film, thank you for the upload
Yes ...the priest bishop cardinals n pope is all living a lavish life full of comfort ....do they donate to the poor ????
The Catholic Church is the biggest donater to the poor in the world
@@lmtt123 you meant "donor" or donator
I wish they did, but they're more concentrated to cover up the pedophiles in catholic church
Donate to the poor whith there lives.
The film is outstanding. Very unique and interesting.
I enjoyed it.
I cannot see myself using a movie like a research paper to add clarity in my understanding of what the "church" is all about or Christianity.
Try the coptic orthodox church. Original church
Let the...
WILL OF GOD...
Be done...
God Bless...Amen
I am to understand that Mary Magdalene was one of Jesus Christ's disciples🕊️💚🙏
Yes because a disciple is a any follower of Jesus, as compared to the apostles who were specially selected by Christ.
There were a multitude of disciples of Christ, including Mary Magdalene.
But there were only the 12 that were closest to Christ.

Yes. In the upper room there were 120 disciples waiting...several named are women. The Holy Spirit fell upon them like tongues of fire. Etc. He also decides who gets gifts...healing, deliverance, teaching, prophesy etc. Women not excluded. Read of His relationship with women throughout the Bible. Shalom.
Mary Magdalene is more than the Catholic Church wants to admit. That's why they went through so much lengths to ban books that tells the truth.
By minute 25:00 this film got me hooked. Watch it. :)
P.s. Pro or Con it this film is a good story.
I've always enjoyed your work: Thank you Mr. Duke.
I was captivated by the arguments why women can not be a priest. It was not precisely written in the bible but you have to consider that a priest (a male) is the head of the local church, while a family as a domestic church, wherein the father (a male) is appointed to be the head of the family, not the mother. Both have different important roles in the domestic church. In the same way in a the bigger community, the church.
True. The Bible speaks of the nations being ruled by women and children, it even says that the men are as women. This is coming true and is the reason that we are falling apart as a nation: too many women ruling and really young boys are acting just like them. Women rule as they see fit, women just think different, and for that reason they need men, and for so many reasons. I often wonder about female pastors: if they're running the show, where are all the men. Though I also understand, and remember when most men were real men, even in the household, now it's mostly just 'yes dear' and just to keep the peace men let the women be the head of households. Men are now becoming less then what GOD created and what He required of a man: could it be that feminist and the women in general are doing a very good job at removing masculinity from men (because they want it). Masculinity is the main ingredient that makes a man.
I do not normally recommend movies but I DO RECOMMEND THIS ONE.
i wanted to be a pastor before but my father stopped me by doing so even am already accepted to enter the seminary. he said , the church should be lead by men only like how Christ as the head of the church and fathers as the head of the family. Paternity!!!....
Yes, Yes, Yes! Hallelujah! Jesus Is The Head Of The Church Amen, Seek First!

VERY interesting film and well done. It does give people something to think about.
I really enjoyed this little seen movie. Interesting arguments.
This is a good movie it makes u think alot about the church and man and the woman😇😇😇
A twist in the plot could have had Tom applying to join the Priesthood!
Yep
As a Muslim (female) who grew up in a Buddh7ust country, it just makes me sad to see how patriachy all religions (including Buddhism) are.
There are scriptures/books kept from the Bible remember. Also, Jesus did have women following him that did Jesus's teachings and preachings.
What book
Technically since the Government cannot make any rule prohibiting the free exercise of religion and since the Catholic Church is practicing their religion by not letting her become a priest nothing can be done.
In bible it says that women cannot be head or leader of church. Yet they can be Sunday school teacher.
