frankly, the lack of leadership by men in all aspects of our lives has been so destructive, that having women step in makes sense....
why do most PTA's have mostly women leaders?...I'll tell you why...the men can't be bothered...
in a perfect world, men should be the leaders.....that is their responsibility....
women shouldn't have to be pastors and they shouldn't have to be soldiers either....they shouldn't have to "fill in" when no males are coming forward....
return of the jedi...return of the king....when will men return?
One problem is women refuse to fill their role these days leaving only the real men left to do everything. We need our helpmate but most women are now selfish and have abandoned their role.
This is not a them problem it is an us problem.
So in your world the Bible is relative and the Apostle Paul is not TOTALLY clear .
