Well, here's my two cents. While I disagree with the bishop's ideas regarding cause and effect, I do believe that both the androgyny and the abortion issue stem from the same cause: that is, the French revolutionary idea of egalite.

Women are slavishly convinced that men have it better and that they have to be like men. Ironically, the women who promote this ideology the most stridently, do not seem to be attracted to men.

It is easy to see the excesses of the bishop given the dominance of egalitarian philosophy in our current culture, what is far more difficult to discern is how much of a bad and ultimately anti-Christian culture we have come to accept. Not only accept, but promote.

I noticed that some of what St, Paul wrote gets bracketed in the missalettes, meaning that the priest or lector can skip those parts. Have we become so "progressive" that New Testament Scripture is making us uncomfortable? I think it shows how far we may have traveled down the wrong path. Our more "mainstream" ideas may be more palatable to us, but that is no guarentee of their inherent virtue.
