Re: women in authority in church, I like what Calvin said to Knox...

Thank you. I just posted something similar to this to Kosta but wish I had read yours first. It says it much more succintly. Perhaps he/she will read both.

What a shame it would be to quiet a woman who was filled with knowledge of God and an ability to teach.

On the magnificent woman in God's sight, and the 'quietness' He desires:

...let it be the hidden person of the heart,
with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit,
which is precious in the sight of God.
~1 Peter 3:4

Thank you for bringing this to mind with your post.
