💨 Abstract

The selection process for a new Pope begins tomorrow, with all contenders being male, as women are unable to become priests, a tradition-based restriction among Catholics. The Pope must be a baptized Catholic and either a bishop, priest, cardinal, deacon, or layman. While women can serve as nuns, altar servers, and lectors, they cannot be priests.
