Catholic Theologians on the Faithful and Women Priests

In regard to my question on whether faithful Catholics must assent to the judgment that the Church lacks authority to ordain women, in 1997 the Catholic Theological Society of America overwhelmingly endorsed the conclusions of this paper expressing skepticism that the reasons "given by the Congregation [for the Doctrine of the Faith] justify the assertion that the definitive assent of the faithful must be given to the teaching that the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women."
