VATICAN CITY (RNS) — Speaking to members of the International Theological Commission at the Vatican on Thursday (Nov. 30), Pope Francis asked theologians to “demasculinize” the church in an unscripted remark. Pope Francis pointed out that there were only five women among the 30-plus theologians in attendance.. “We need to move forward on this! Women have a way of reflecting on theology that is different from us men,” he added. The pope said he studied the Italian theologian Romano Guardini through the work of a woman, Hanna-Barbara Gerl-Falkovitz, who impacted his understanding of women in theology.
