The feminist professor of theology who died in Ireland never knew that Vatican Council II could be interpreted in harmony with the past exclusivist ecclesiology , an ecumenism of return, and Feeneyite extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS).
They still do not know this at the St.Saint Meirad Seminary and School of Theology, where she taught.
She interpreted Vatican Council II confusing what is invisible as being visible and then accepted a non traditional conclusion, with this bad reasoning.
She would conclude that if the Council can be a rupture with EENS, then why could there not also be women priests.
It's the same pattern with Cardinal Walter Kasper.Since Vatican Council II is a rupture with the past ecclesiology, he said, then why cannot Eucharist be given to the divorced and re-married.
But Vatican Council II is not really a rupture with EENS.
Pope Paul VI could have interpreted the Council with invisible cases of LG 8, LG 14, LG 16 etc, just being invisible. Then they would not be mistaken by Catholics, as being literal examples of salvation outside the Church.Nor would they be projected as practical exceptions to 16th century.
He did not do this.Neither did Sr.Carmel McEnroy.
The good sister lived most of her life in ignorance.She did not know that the Council was traditional when interpreted rationally.
An educated , articulate and caring nun dies in ignorance of Vatican Council II.-Lionel Andrades
