Agree … where in the Bible does it consecrate the ordination of women. All my sudies indicat that women are to be silent within the church.

Any women that feels that she is called to the priesthood is delusional. She may be a great preacher and great adminitrater of the chuch but she is missing her real calling. Something other than the Priesthood.

I am more interested in 1 Timothy...where the qualifications for a pastor are enumerated

3:1 It is a trustworthy statement: if any man aspires to the office of overseer, it is a fine work he desires to do.

3:2 An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, prudent, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,

3:3 not addicted to wine or pugnacious, but gentle, peaceable, free from the love of money.

3:4 He must be one who manages his own household well, keeping his children under control with all dignity

3:5 (but if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how will he take care of the church of God?),
