I see your point, but unlike US/any nations, religions like Catholic is more conservative when it comes to change, since they use bible as law. Let be honest here, it easier to bypass the amandment than a bible.
I don't claim i know all of the verse, but why they should risk it, if by opted for female pastor idea is go against the bible, they will lost their 2000 year of traditions and credibility.
About the black pope, agreed with you.
