VATICAN CITY - Pope Francis on Wednesday named the first woman to hold a high-ranking post in the Secretariat of State, the male-dominated Vatican’s diplomatic and administrative nerve center.

The Roman Catholic Church allows only men to be ordained as priests and women have traditionally been consigned to the shadows of its administration. They cite figures showing that more than half of the world’s 1.3 billion Catholics are women and that membership of female religious orders is about three times larger than male orders.

The Vatican, a sovereign state surrounded by Rome, has diplomatic relations with more than 180 countries.

I hope she smashes the “stained” symbolic “glass ceiling” at St. Peter’s Basilica. 😂 (puns intended) Who ever claimed that God was a man, was probably a man. 🤔 Meanwhile, Mary Magdalene can silently cheer for the “first woman”. 🥂

They are 2020 years behind. It's time

But is she hot?🗿

Gosh... that didn't take too long at all.

Look, the tiniest dick hides behind The Incredible Hulk shorts, or did you not get that?

I love Pope! I am not a Christian but I LOVE Pope. Good guy, right there.

Meanwhile the same moron...

Vatican doomed

Just don't tug on his robe or he'll slap you!

Congrats to her. Her name please!

Retired Pope distances himself from book seen as undercutting Pope FrancisFormer Pope Benedict XVI will remove his name as co-author of a book seen as undercutting his successor Pope Francis, according to a statement from the other author of the book, Cardinal Robert Sarah. I hope the pedophile ring can keep it together. I can’t believe “popes” are still a thing 🤣 Awesome. Cardinal Sarah needs to be defrocked. He was probably taking advantage of an elderly man, a retired man.
