It has little to do with my applecart. It has much to do with the way Jesus established His Church and the way the Church will forever be.

If you were a woman, how would you feel hearing that over and over? No matter what the rationale behind it all, it makes me feel bad and not as good as the men and I do not believe I am alone in feeling that way.

That is not a Biblical teaching. According to God's Word, men and women are absolutely equal. He has assigned different tasks; but one is no more noble or important than the other.

I am not a woman, but my mother and my wife, along with countless nameless others do not desire to be men and to fulfill their roles.

You have bought into feminism as your premier faith. It is more important to you that you be able to do anything a man can than it is for you to accept God's world as it is.

My mother and my wife and countless, nameless others put their faith in God above feminism.

The Church will not and ought not to self-destruct in order to protect your subjective "feelings." You worst enemy is this chronic wallowing in unjustified self-pity. If that makes me cold, so be it.

It's not about feelings. It's about truth. We all have to work to get our feelings in line with the truth. Not the other way around.
