July 17, 2010 | Hindus urge Vatican to be more kind to Catholic women |
Nevada (US): Hindus have urged Vatican to be more kind to Roman
Catholic women. New rules announced by Vatican on Thursday reportedly described
attempted ordination of women as a 'grave crime' carrying same punishments/procedures/gravity
as for sex abuse and heresy. Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada
(USA) today, said that women could disseminate God's message as skillfully as
men and deserved equal and full participation and access in religion. Zed, who
is President of Universal Society of Hinduism, further said that as women were
equal partners in the society, so they should be equal partners in the religion
also. Quoting Hindu scriptures, Rajan Zed said: Where women are honored, there
the gods are pleased. Roman Catholic Church is the largest of the Christian denominations
and is headed by His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI and headquartered in Vatican. |
