Finally, a Public Excommunication!

Well, it finally happened. Bishop Thomas Paprocki of Springfield in Illinois confirmed the Latae Sententiae (automatic by the evil act itself) excommunication of a woman who attempted to get ordained a Catholic priest. You can check out the official decree here.

I continue to be baffled by individuals who, in an amazingly childlike manner, continue to attempt official actions that are explicitly prohibited by the Catholic Church. If one is really that unhappy about the Church's rules, it would stand to reason that very same person would join a church that adheres more closely to their own personal beliefs.

I hear the Episcopal church ordains women, so why not go over there?
