Reasons for:

All people have the same value in the eyes of God so why should women not be able to become priests.

Jesus had lots of female disciples.

More and more women are holding senior positions in the diocesan administration

Reasons against:

According to the Bible Jesus only chose to surround himself with male disciples.

Jesus choose exclusively men to apostles.

The Church has no right to change what Jesus decided.
