Other churches try to shmooze me but I'm a catholic, so ordain me!
Lol ... they're not giving up.
sigh. All this gender bickering makes my head hurt.
I don’t believe Jesus wanted us to continue getting stuck in a mindset like the pharisees. He wanted our hearts and minds and bodies to serve Him, and our human nature has to go and screw up that simple thing.
I’m not gonna get into the my priest is better than your priest business. We get too focused on man-made and church-made rules and forget to be like Jesus, do like Jesus.
I think He will come back soon anyway and He’ll continue to fulfill every prophecy ever written about Him. I just want to be in His number, and have the sweet task of worshiping Him at His throne! And I bet there will be a lot of female “priests/pastors” who will be there right beside me, just like I can bet that there will be quite a few male priests/pastors who will NOT be there! Gender doesn’t automatically da#$ you to the eternal fires—it’s SIN. I’m not gonna get into the Church’s long list of types of sin, categories of sin, when children become aware of sin, where my soul goes when I die, etc. I’ll leave that to folks who have lots of time on their hands to argue such stuff.
It’s like the different types of baptism. I just tell my daughter it’s man’s way of messing up a very simple commitment to Jesus and then trying to make sure everyone else feels bad or inferior about their kind of baptism. We quarrel and quibble too much about stupid stuff and meanwhile souls and hearts are lost to Him. That is the real shame.
I mean, um, sister.
I mean --- smash the gender binary ---SIBLING!!
