And you could be the first female Reichbishop.

No, I'm Presbyterian and the Presbyterian Church does not have bishops. We have elders and presbyters elected by and from the congregation, a system upon which the U.S. government was specifically modeled.

(And my Presbyterian denomination does not ordain women as pastors, so spare me the attempted insult.)

But thanks for thinking of me.

Of course, if we did have bishops we'd abide by the word of God when he described a bishop...

"A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach" -- 1 Timothy 3:2

Wake up, Rome. You're going the wrong way.
