- For the first time in history, Swedish female priests outnumber their male counterparts. In the Nordic country, often hailed as a champion of gender equality, the statistics are clear: as of July, 50.1 percent of priests are women, and 49.9 percent are men.

This report is confusing. The Church of Sweden is not Catholic; it's Lutheran. There is no priesthood in the Lutheran Church worldwide. Why are they using the term "priest?" Am I wrong?
The Lutheran churches in the Nordic countries retained the priesthood and three-fold order
@@user-tu2xf4uf3n The three-fold order of deacon, priest, and bishop is the historic ministry of all of Christendom. These Lutheran churches didn't "steal" it, they inherited it from the Apostolic age
They should either become catholic or orthodox.
Get a education. Have you read the Augsburg Confession?
Priest is often just a shorthand way of describing anyone who is in charge of a Christian service, (for instance, if you don't know the correct word to use).
This is Not the Catholic Church. It's probably some kind of Anglican Church or some other Christian sect. As far as the Catholic Church's stance is on the matter as per Pope Francis' decree (Jun 2, 2021) Cannon 1379 "Both a person who attempts to confer a sacred order on a woman, and the woman who attempts to receive the sacred order, incur a latae sententia excommunication reserved to the Apostolic See; a cleric, moreover may be punished by dismissal from the clerical state." The Catholic Church does NOT have female priests.
If I remember correctly, this is not an Anglican Church. Yes, Anglican Churches allow women to become priests, but I am pretty sure the Church of Sweden is Lutheran. And I wonder, if gay marriage is allowed, then why can't women become priests? Many people used to say the Bible did not approve of homosexual marriage (and elements of it are still restricted to this day), but Catholics and Baptists allow gay and lesbian marriage now.
@@keagaming9837woah woah woah there pal. Idk about baptists but the Catholic Church does NOT allow gay marriage. Where in the world did you get that idea?🤣🤣

Phew!!! Thank God this is not the one holy, catholic and apostolic church! I was confused for a little bit
@Aesthetic Did you not read in the description that they were ordained at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer, and not an actual Catholic Church. They're not Catholics. Just using the name "catholic". In 2007 the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, with the authorization of Pope Benedict XVI, decreed the penalty of automatic excommunication against anyone "who attempts to confer a sacred order on a woman, and the woman who attempts to receive a sacred order". Also, the pope actually just came out a few days ago reiterating this penalty. So, all those so-called "priests" are not catholics since they have all been excommunicated. They are only able to call themselves catholics because that name "catholic" has not been trademarked.
@Aesthetic Any Mass they celebrate will be invalid, illicit, and illegitimate. Any "sacraments" they confer will be also be invalid and illicit.

@@sydneysstopmotion8679 Vikings 🤣
They are
Sure the Church of Sweden has low attendance and most of the members stay in the church because it does very good things for the community and not for the religious part, but the women priest part does not make the Sweden Church unchristian. At this point, it seems to be a matter of perspective. Women are made of the same stuff as men, we are all human. Eve was made from one of Adam's ribs, "technically" women are an extension of men, so women should become priests since they are an extension of men. Yes men and women have their differences, but we all are made out of flesh and blood. We all are alive and human which is what matters at the end of the day.
They are.
It's ok...
I know it's invalid priesthood.
It's just only like a female cosplay like a priest.
Shame on these women. Im a woman. Follow Lord Jesus
😂😂😂😂
They believe Lord Jesus called them to the priesthood. It's similar to the story of Mary and Martha when Jesus said Mary belonged learned along with the men rather than in the kitchen.
Bishop Sheen clarified that no woman can be Priest because they are the one who gave birth to the members of the Church in union with family life. This is appalling
Bishop Fulton Sheen. Pray for us.
The ban on Women's Ordination came in 642AD at the Council of Laodicea. A disciple or Talmid was the Seminarian of Jesus' time. Mary and Martha were disciples and even their discussions with Christ at Lazarus' funeral pointed to learning theology at His feet. They were disciples to become Rabbis and Prophets and Apostles like their Ravv and Rabbi
These are Lutherans, not Catholic
@@hesedagape6122 Plus Paul, himself, commends Junia the APOSTLE, Phoebe the DEACON, Priscilla his COWORKER, even commending her in 2 Timothy after the supposed 1 Timothy clobber passage taken out of context
@SweatySamurai99 funny thing is that though the Orthodox Catholic and Roman Catholic Communions banned women's Ordination they continued having female clergy in the form of Abbesses/Prioresses (Bishops), Nuns (Priests) and Sisters (Deacons) however without Ordination they could not minister Sacraments.
Funny enough many misinformed Roman Catholics think Protestant Catholic female Ordination has no precedent and not a few of our own Protestant Catholics as well. They fail to understand that the strength of the Early Church was in her gender neutral ordained clergy which enabled it to have a strong women's wing which could weather wave after wave of persecution.
@@hesedagape6122 Ik it's hilarious, Apostolic Constitutions from the 4th century literally has an ordination rite for deaconesses involving a laying on of hands, instructed them to baptize the women which only ordained clergy are allowed to perform.
Even some Eastern Orthodox Christians have been arguing for women's ordination, including figures like Bishop Kallistos Ware. The Greek Orthodox Church in Alexandria has had deaconesses since 2017, but they "consecrate", rather than ordain them as a cope
0:20-34: "... we also see that the theology students, they are starting their theology studies, a majority ... like more than 80% ... are female."
1) At this rate, when in the future might there be 80% of ordained active clergy that are female in the Church of Sweden? If this trend accelerates, could the ranks of the ordained become 'mangratis' (free of men) by the end of the 21st century?
2) Is Ingmar Bergman's 1963 film Winter Light about a Swedish pastor in a small rural church approved for instructional viewing in the seminary as it pertains to the challenges of parish ministry?
Thank God for the Catholic Church

I didn't know Lutherans had priests, I thought they were pastors or ministers.
Church of Sweden is Lutheran although it has an episcopalian polity. Til year 2000 it was the official church/religion of Sweden.
I'm sure by now that it has been mentioned that despite many similarities this is not Roman Catholic but more likely Lutheran, I would have to admit that the scene is much Catholic except for the Woman clergy. Those who are Lutheran especially in non Lutheran countries may be surprised at the closeness of the two in appearance as Lutheranism has stronger carryovers from Catholicism in many parts of northern Europe.
As a Swede, I can tell you that the church of Sweden is Lutheran-evangelical with a touch of liberalism

He did.
"21 Then Jesus left Galilee and went north to the region of Tyre and Sidon.
22 A Gentile woman who lived there came to him, pleading, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! For my daughter is possessed by a demon that torments her severely.”
23 But Jesus gave her no reply, not even a word. Then his disciples urged him to send her away. “Tell her to go away,” they said. “She is bothering us with all her begging.”
****24 Then Jesus said to the woman, “I was sent only*** to help God’s lost sheep-the people of Israel.”****
25 But she came and worshiped him, pleading again, “Lord, help me!”
26 Jesus responded, “It isn’t right to take food from the children and throw it to the dogs.”
27 She replied, “That’s true, Lord, but even dogs are allowed to eat the scraps that fall beneath their master’s table.”
28 “Dear woman,” Jesus said to her, “your faith is great. Your request is granted.” And her daughter was instantly healed.
Matthew 15:21-28 (NLT)
Christ left it to his Disciples and Apostles to go and convert the Gentiles.
"15 And he said to them, "Go to all the world and preach the gospel to every creature:
16 he who believes and is baptized shall be saved, but he who will not believe shall be condemned".

You are right Patrick. Christianism is not a democracy or a social experiment. Women can't be priests or pastors. Saint Paul forbid them.
@@MW-ij2in Yes, Saint Paul is not God. When did I ever say he was? He was a presbyter in the Church and thus set the rules to govern it by inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

The Catholic Church has female monastic clergy - Abbesses are Bishops, Nuns are Priests, and Sisters are Deacons. They are not ordained so they cannot perform Sacraments but otherwise they perform all other functions of those offices. Protestant Catholics only chose to ordain non-monastic women after your example. I would have preferred they wear Abbess, Nun and Sister habits so Roman Catholics like you will quickly recognise them
LOL what are you talking about silly?
@@hesedagape6122
No, the Church doesn't have any female monastic clergy.
You are forgetting that the whole point of Priesthood is the ability to perform the sacraments and most importantly, be in Persona Christi.
This is might be an error in translation. In Swedish the word "Präst" sounds like Priest, but in the English speaking world, a Lutheran church leader is called "Pastor". Also, the young lady at the end is using the word "Picture" but in English you'd use "Image".
Which denomination? I am curious.

@@georgeduskalieo Christ said there is no difference between Jews and Greeks, Slaves or free.....but he never said there is no difference between men and women. We have different roles in the church. As a practicing Catholic woman I am happy with my role in the church.
Can someone please remind me what a definition of Priest is and then take a good look at these women’s doing a job that can only pertain to male and not just any male, it’s a vocation and it’s a call by God, but I don’t remember Jesus with any woman as a disciple, he had women working around him and they stated they wanted to help in any way and follow him but they were often not heard of preaching to anyone. For example, we see the act of Mary his mother often at prayer and remaining Holy, not once did she get in the way of Jesus, she was often at prayer, like our nun do today and have done for decades.
These so-called female priests are just female supremacists.

You write well, and I find your comments do follow the mandates of Jesus and how the Churches skewed the message.
I was born into a Catholic family, we left for a few decades and went back in the 80's when I though there were to be major changes, as did many others.
It took another 12 years of hoping and then realizing it would not happen. I slowly pulled away after the major exposure of abuses and the faithful Catholics having to sell off property to pay for sex abuse cases.
Yes, those who were abused should have had restitution of some kind, but the Clergy and the Vatican should have dug into their own coffers and not from the hard work and money to build churches from the laity.
It is shameful. And the recent twitter post of the Pope for people to start having babies and stop having pets as substitutes (para) is a slam again against Catholic women and children everywhere. Many who exist in abject poverty in large numbers in third world countries.
Thank you for your voice of reason that does follow the path of what it says in scripture, while knowing what is to be followed and what not.

Why? Is something wrong with female priests?
@@user-um9ny1ys9r But you are catolic or protestant or orthodox???
@@Erykja I was raised in ortodox country. But my parents/relatives/acquaintance are not religious. So I don't really know much about rules of any of mentioned churches.
So I wonder: Why in catolic church woman can't be priest? Or why it is bad to have female priest?
@@user-um9ny1ys9r Jesus said that only a man can be a priest and if woman is a priest it is not true Christianity 🙂
@@Erykja Fair enough, thanks.
It's just weird. There is no such thing as female priests.
it's disgrace for all Christian people.
as a Jewish.
we have also evil feminist but they can't do anything against our religious because it's above law !!
Wake up, Gilead.
These are women who want to be taken seriously as having the same rights as priests. The problem is it is not of divine origin but man made or should i say women made.
I am Swedish Danish descent! I have been to church with a woman Lutheran minister and had a bad experience with her. I have visited some of these old churches in Sweden, but I will never stay for church services with a female minister. I might just return to my historic pagan belief!!!
Heresy
The arrogance of catholics like the ones in the comments knows no boundaries.
the arrogance of protestantism knows no boundaries
@@saldol9862"N-no, you"
I swear, it's like 90% of TradCaths walk with Christ involves "owning the libs" and screaming "Heresy!", literally only culture-war issues matter to them so they can LARP as Crusaders and Conquistadors
It’s not arrogant to say 2 + 2 equals 4. It’s just stating the truth.
You shall convert to Roman Catholicism, or go to Hell! Your choice!
Ironically, women might actually be better suited to the clergy than men. This is an area more dependent on verbal talents than either math of physical strength. Thus, when discrimination is removed, it could become a kind of "women's job." It is really not surprising that most clergy in the Church of Sweden are female.
1 Timothy 2:11-13 KJV
Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
Ok, Gilead.
This comment section IS SICK AS HELL POEPLE IN THIS COMMENT SECTION NEED SOME HELP I SWEAR-💀
Okay dude...go take your meds.
@@aceraphael i dont need any meds sick minded people need
Please stop going on TH-cam when your drunk
Tried. Gilead has entered the comments.
And it's like we would wish the blessed mother to be the blessed man now
Thank God this isn't catholicism but luthernism
HAHHAHAHAHAHHA
@@christygodfrey1752 you worship Mary as sinless, not a big difference
@@lostplanet1931 nonsense
Shouldn’t technically called priestess
Oh good point, I guess before since women were not allowed to become priests at all, there was no use for the term priestess.
Hey, if gay and lesbian marriage is allowed, I don't see how women priests/esses would not be allowed.
Never women for priest, its tragedy for church
heresy has outnumbered true catholicism
This is not Catholicism, but Lutheranism.
Relax, Gilead.
Very shocking, to see that in the church 😢😢😭😭
But this isn’t the Church, it’s a Protestant sect.
You hate women?
@@futuristica1710
Does the name Theotokos ring a bell?
No.. It's not Catholic church..
She’s not a real priest but fun to play dress up.
She’s a priest. Go back to Gilead.
Like you in your mom’s clothes?
Sad.
Women are not supposed to be priests. Search the Scriptures. 🇦🇺
I did and there are many women church leaders. The word priest or preacher is not used in the bible.
Romans and Acts have plenty of women leading churches.
God's wrath on Sweden is something else.
How very protestant of them.
HERESY, BLASPHEMY WOMEN ARE NOT TO BE PREACHERS/PRIESTS
Jezebel spirit
That's not a priest
Yes, she is. Go back to Gilead .
Most Lutheran Pastors would be offended if someone called them priests. The Lutheran Church does not have priests. They dont want priests, tho they seem to like all of our Catholic stuff now.
I am surprised that many of the commentators here are unaware that the Church of Sweden is Lutheran. As a Lutheran, I am proud that most Lutheran churches throughout the world ordain women as priests.
Ok.... so how does that make it ok. 🤔 see women only attempt too become priests because men do it... YUP like a 12 year old child. R u joking???? Ha 9 out of ten times it's in spite of men and guess what! It's not holly in fact it's pure evil see she is not firm in God she can't be atleast not like a man can sorry your completely wrong and it's not common bye the way . I can tell you lying and your making up the fact that you practice religion. Your an angry feminist your out numbered Women don't look up too you they don't relate too you. Your mad that men will always run the church guess what ? It's gonna stay like this also . Switzerland is a rich country but there a political mess and a stain on modern science. It doesn't matter because a church with a female wanna be priestess is never gonna do good ...ever attendance will always be low public opinion declines and money stops rolling in hahahaha look it up willy 🤣 they post these real facts in there statistics. They won't tell you how many churches in Switzerland closed because of non attendances and funds. They hide that so you have too think 🤔 and also realize that your probably going too the wrong church ok...you were raised by people who had low intelligence like retards basically they threw up there feminism into your ears and your just spewing it out on any surface you lay eyes on!!!
Me too!
@@dannielson2946 Women become Priests because God allows it. It is men who have misrepresented how God works in that regard.
It has nothing to do with feminism, and everything to do with God given rights to lead and share the gospel as JESUS said for all Christ followers to do!
@to be deleted Which "agenda" was being utilized when men made mistakes recording things down and then put them from 1000's of manuscripts into canons...
I think men should be glad women did not rear up sooner to take their rightful place. But oh, lets live like they did 2000 and 6000 years ago? But men get to live in a modern world with modern amenities but women are quashed?
Proud of heresy?
Sweden is an accomplished society.
Sweden is an accomplished society? Have you even been there? I sure have and I can tell you that it most certaintly is not.
@@user-jf8oz2vh8d I highly doubt that's due to female priests. Everyone is so scared of women and equality. Evolve already.
@@user-jf8oz2vh8d Ooooo how so? I want to go to Sweden some day,
@@keagaming9837 Various factors. Immigration, unrest, shootings, drugs etc. Sweden did this to themselves to be fair. If you're gonna visit just remember to always stay away from Malmø, Göteborg and always remain away from the outskirts of the cities. Sweden's stupid problems have even started to spill over to Norway. Sweden might be beautiful, but don't trust everything you read.
@@user-jf8oz2vh8d Ok, if I ever end up visiting Sweden, I’ll keep that in mind! Ty
Who ordained them?
So glad to see so many theology students! Perhaps they should start by reading 1 Timothy 2:12
