"Priestesses, and bishopesses"

No, whatever the gender, they are called priests and bishops. Hope that helps.

No, they are priestesses and bishopesses, and the Anglicans' habit of ordaining them simply takes them further down the road of apostacy.

Hope that helps.

Oh, yes.

Nouns and verbs have gender. Gender is a grammatical term. They are masculine, feminine, or neuter.

Men and women, boys and girls have sex. They are either male or female.

Hope that helps, too.

A local tv station intervied an Episcopal female minister on the news last night. The tagline read: Mother (followed by her name).
