So, from this article it appears as another step closer toward a possible female diaconate within the Catholic Church. Any anons more familiar with this that can point out the flaws in this Vatican release? archive.fo
Is this overblown hype?

There are female deacons in the Bible. It's an canonical, not theological, impediment.

Amoris laetitia blatantly contradicts Casti connubii so there’s no reason a future move allowing women deacons couldn’t contradict Ordinatio sacerdotalis
Nolan Harris
Ordinatio sacerdotalis is priestly, not deaconal
Juan Smith
Modern deacons are ordained though, it’s holy order
While there were women deacons in history, they were not ordained and mainly served the purpose of baptising women (which was done in the nude by full immersion)

Did you read the article?
>Could the Catholic Church institute a “female diaconate”?

The problem in Nicea was laying on of hands - that was why they weren't considered ordained. Chalcedon canon 15 orders the laying on of hands. You now have new information. Has your view changed in light of it?

True but we both know that the aspirations don't stop there. If this happens they'll want to rush forward and start pushing female priests.

This is exactly what happened in the Anglican church, the supporters of female deacons immediately started pushing for the ordination of women to 'regularise' Holy Orders
