So then where does it say that women can’t be pastors? Ever hear of Dorcas?

So then where does it say that women can’t be pastors? Ever hear of Dorcas?

That wasn't your original question. But to answer you now,
A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent” (1 Timothy 2:11–12).

Why do you think Paul wrote that to Timothy? To silence women? No, he wrote it to protect them. That women choose to go out from that umbrella of protection is beyond my understanding. Why would they want that?
