The laity... namely anyone who is not a priest, deacon, or bishop is not ordained. Nuns or brothers are not ordained. They are officially considered part of the laity.
Because the in the eyes of the Catholic Church and its priest the bible was to only be read by those ordained. This made it were the church could tell the people how they could be saved and learn the word of god.

Yes as long as you were legally married. And if you were congratz!!! ---- If either party of the couples is a Catholic, then for the Catholic Church to officially recognize the marriage, the couple must have been married in the Catholic Church.
A female has never been ordained to "major orders" deacon/priest in the Roman Catholic Church, the Uniate Churches (Eastern Catholic) or Orthodox Church
No. Even uncontrollable stuttering will prevent one from being ordained a priest.
The ordained ministries in the Catholic Church are deacons, priests and bishops. There are also other extraordinary ministers but they are not ordained. Am example would be a Eucharistic minister.
