Veritas, Holy Orders is a Sacrament; the mandatum of Maundy Thursday is not.The prohibition of women from the Sacrament of Order in Ordinatio Sacerdotalis in 1994 necessarily precludes women from the Diaconate, since the Diaconate is the lowest of the three levels of Holy Orders (the priesthood and the episcopacy being the other two).Why is this wayward prelate bringing up a moot point?
