no...she would be a pretender, not a priest(ess).
I do not know what the future portends....but for the past 2000 years it has been the stated rule that a priest shall be a man. (though if my history is right, there may have been a female pope in the 13th century that hid her womanhood)

though if my history is rightIt is not. There was no Pope Joan and no gap in which such could have been inserted.

God is male, Jesus is male, The Holy Ghost is male (he), the writers of the Bible are predominantly male, the priests from Genesis on are male, the prophets are male, (the prophetess's are few), Adam was created first and it is stated a woman is a usurper if she takes the role of priest or minister.
HOW can a woman preach or teach Eve was a beguiler because she was hooked by a clever tongued devil ?
It is all wrong, wrong, wrong, and no amount of I love Jesaus just as much as you do will change that.

Well, I’m sure Mary Streck buys into it.
