Yes, women ... ARE a threat to the fetishisation of reality into "mysteries" and "sacraments"

I see you didn't grow up in Catholic Ireland. Women are, in my experience, the main customers and sales persons for the fetishisation of reality into "mysteries" and "sacraments".

True, but a man has to do the sacramental mystery stuff up there in front. Otherwise it doesn't work.

Some may dispute the extent to which I grew up, but it was very much in Catholic Ireland.  I should, more accurately, have phrased my comment to read - the ordination and consecration of women is a threat that that traditional world-view, not necessarily the women themselves - although in my experience, it can be the women as well.  (My mother-in-law is a 79 year old ordained priest who has no time for such crap)
