Catholic AnswerA Rector in the Catholic Church is the head of a religious community of men or of an educational institute, in canonical language a rector is the priest in charge of a church that is neither parochial nor capitular nor annexed to the house of a religious community for its religious functions. (fromModern Catholic Dictionary) The only two times I have been familiar with a priest that was designated a "Rector" in the Catholic Church was the priest in charge of the Cathedral parish - the Pastor is technically the Bishop, but he is not around to run its day to day operations, so a Rector is appointed who fills most of the normal functions of a pastor. The other incident with which I am familiar is a seminary, the priest in charge of the seminary is the Rector.

What is the highest ranking of a women in the Catholic Church?
The highest rank women can reach in the Catholic church are to be saints, with Mary, the mother of Jesus, being even higher than other saints..AnswerThe only "rank" in the Catholic Church belongs to the clergy, Pope, Bishops (Cardinals, ArchBishops, Bishops), priests, deacons, minor orders; then the laity, who hold no "rank". Thus women will hold no "rank" in the Catholic Church from the point of view of titles. However, if you read the job description of all of the clergy, you know that Our Blessed Lord appointed them only "to serve". From that point of view, service, then women are running neck in neck with men, but again, no rank. Remember that the Church is the Mystical Body of Christ, and only exists to be conformed to His Will. As Our Blessed Lord, Himself, pointed out, there should be no such talk among you!

How can a non Catholic divorced man marry a Catholic female in a Catholic church?
In general, no.This answer does a nice job of summing it up: see link below.Roman Catholic AnswerThe non Catholic divorced man would have to speak to his local Catholic priest and apply for a decree of nullity (a ruling that he was never validly married).

While it's not a monk's specific job to police the Catholic Church for corruption, monks are called to maintain integrity and moral values within their own communities. If a monk witnesses corruption within the Church, they may choose to address it through proper channels or seek guidance from higher authorities. Ultimately, the responsibility for addressing corruption within the Catholic Church lies with its leaders and members as a whole.

Ireland is an almost 100% Catholic country where the Catholic Church still wields considerable influence which has only diminished somewhat in the wake of numerous sexual-abuse scandals by Irish Catholic bishops, nuns and priests. And a country where a church aims to strongly dominate everyday beliefs and values will want a lot of local churches from where parish priests can do the job.
