"When asked for her own view of what that should mean for the church today, she said, "I would draw the implication that if the risen Christ saw fit to ask a woman to go and preach the good news of his resurrection, the church should do no less nowadays."


No, no, no, no! Women are NOT to be popes, ministers, pastors, rabbis etc.. This is the role of a MALE. They can be missionaries but NOT head ANY church - that is if God's Word matters. He is clear that it is a MALE role to head a church.
