I am sorry, but I strongly, and I do mean strongly, disagree with you.

Pederasty is not from not being able to marry. That is probably the most ridiculous thing I have read and it negates your entire point of women not being leaders in church.

If you find an unmarried male over a certain age, I would watch my children around him. How many homosexual men adopt male children vs female? How many lesbians adopt females over males? Why do you think that is?

I wasn't stating my opinion for most of the post, I was quoting Scriptures. If you feel the need to go to church with a female priest, go for it. This is America. I'm just saying it's not God's church. God describes His church structure in Timothy through Paul, fairly plainly. The traditions of men were looked down upon by Jesus and He spoke out against their practice in His Church. You can think that something has been wrong for thousands of years and we have figured out finally that women belong in the pulpit, but that is not in the Scripture. If the Scripture isn't your touchstone for what God wants, then what measure do you use, "feelings"?
