All theological arguments aside, I've long held that the best practical argument against ordaining women is the nature of women who clamour for ordination ...
Amen to that.

There was a time some years ago when I favored ordination for women. Then all of a sudden it occurred to me that the women demanding ordination were not holy women. Many of them are pro-choice, pro-homosexual marriage and participate in strange rituals. I knew a woman well who wanted to be a priest. She admitted that abortion simply wasn't an issue for her, she held WomenChurch services at her home where she dressed in Druid robes. She really had issues with men. Something else I noticed, churches that have permitted ordination of women very quickly started abandoning the truth of the Gospel.
