There are those in the Episcopate who will instrumentalize women in ministry in non-Catholic sects to soften the ground for the ordination of women in the Catholic Church.
I think that’s exactly what we saw with the Archbishopess of the Vacant See of Canterbury. Catholic prelates, who blessed themselves when she gave a priestly blessing were softening the ground to make women’s ordination in our new synodal Church a reality—the so-called developed of doctrine that has done absolute wonders for liberal Protestantism.
Was Pope Leo XIV used? Yes, you betcha.
But let me make this clear. He is not promoting female ordination but Christian charity toward non-Catholics, in particular those who are validly baptized. Her Grace is validly baptized but not validly confirmed unless she received Confirmation from a validly ordained priest or bishop. She is a Christian by virtue of her baptism.
While she dresses as a bishop in her Christian sect, that is only a simulation of Holy Orders or cross-dressing from the Catholic point of view and dogma of the Ordinary Magisterium of the true Church.
Keep in mind, that the very day that Her Grace was installed as the Archishopess of the Vacant See of Canterbury, which was on a Wednesday, Pope Leo’s Wednesday catechesis was on Holy Orders and that only men can receive this Sacrament in whatever level it is offered.
There are a significant number of heterodox Catholics, bishops, lower clergy, religious and laity, who want women ordained and hope one day to have a woman pope, or even transgendered individuals, who refer to themselves as they, them, we and us, and not in the royal usage!
Her grace is the perfect foil to promote their cause. I feel bad that Pope Leo was used by the Anglican Communion and the heterodox in our Church to promote such nonsense.

In a comment on the previous post, you suggested that Rome’s ecumenist teaching “is a pastoral theology, not a defined doctrine.” Yet, in this post you say, “She is a Christian by virtue of her baptism.” This understanding is the basis for the ecumenist position: it is the belief that sacraments happen outside the Body of Christ, the Church. And as I mentioned in my comment on the last post, it is from this erroneous ecclesiology that all the issues you’re talking about flow.
