While I do not know anything about "this group" (nor do I have the time nor inclination to check them out - fully), I do know that the churches that began "ordaining" women (non-biblical) also began denying other biblical admonitions such as homosexuality, pornography & fornication (pre-marital sex) were sins, abortion acceptable "women's health," now even deny the divinity of Jesus Christ - they also have and continue to lose members and are all on the glide path to extinction!

God will NOT be mocked!

I agree 100% that the unbiblical practice of allowing female pastors is strongly correlated with all types of bad doctrine and immoral practices in the church. I believe it is both a symptom and a cause of the spread of error and sin in such churches.

It is a symptom because showing disregard for Scriptural commands not to ordain women, is often (but not always) indicative of a general disrespect for the authority of the Bible.

It is a cause, because women are more vulnerable to spiritual deception. This is the reason Paul give for not permitting woman to preach.

“12 And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression.” - 1 Timothy 2:12 - 14.

I’ve seen otherwise relatively sound churches, begin to drift away from the truth, when they put political correctness above biblical truth and allowed women to preach.

I have often asked the following question to Christians, but have never gotten a response:

“Can you name just ONE, prominent, female preacher, who didn’t focus her ministry primarily towards women and/or children, who was sound in doctrine and morals?”

I can name plenty of female charlatans (and male ones of course), but I have never come across a single, female pastor who was sound.
