What if you had a conference and nobody cared?

Vatican event tackles tough question of women's role in church

White knights shielding a delusional woman:
The moment of female Islamic theologians has come, they are an antidote to extremists

Is she a recognized Muslim "theologian"? No, a Catholic one, teaching in Rome, not in Iran or in the Middle East:
"A theologian and professor of Islamic studies at the Pontifical Gregorian University of Rome, Shahrzad Houshmand Zadeh studied Islamic theology in Qom and Teheran. In Italy she gained a degree in Catholic Theology from the Faculty of Theology in Reggio Calabria (South Italy). The mother of three has always been engaged in the field of Islamic-Christian dialogue. She is co-founder and president of an association called “Donne per la dignità” (“Women for dignity”) and has worked with Rome’s Inter-confessional Center for Peace (CIPAX) since 2005."

Just a fluff piece trying to sell the Brooklyn Bridge. Vatican Insider loses respectability as any sort of outlet of critical journalism.
