Fellow Christians, what does this passage mean to you?

Wrong dumbass. I was raised in the Catholic church. Not once did they ever preach that women should be subservient. But thanks for proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that what I stated was correct.

Douche bag.

I think it is because of Menstrual cycles... :dunno:

Catholics have always been a mystery to me. There are verses in the Bible with Christ himself saying to call no man "Father" because you have a Father in heaven... Tell me why they call Priests "Father" and you may be able to figure out why there aren't any women priests.

My guess is, they think you must have a penis to represent Christ on earth.

I know why, its because they think you must have a penis to represent Christ on Earth and because its hard to lead men while you are being subservant.

Jarod... the only WACK on this thread is YOU. You seem bent on getting some kind of gotcha moment on Christians.

As for the Catholic Priesthood. It is because of tradition. Jesus chose his 12 disciples/apostles and all were men. Those 12 then went out and chose other men to be ordained and so forth.... It is believed that because that was Jesus's intention, it should be carried forward.

That said, Pope John Paul II came out of Vatican II and stated emphatically that the church believes in the equality of women. He specifically said years later when reaffirming that only men could be priests that it was not because women were inferior or incapable. But that it was the tradition of the Church to maintain what Jesus started and the apostles continued. Many Eastern Churches that broke from the Catholic church still believe this as well. Others have altered their views and now allow women to be ordained. There are even bishops within the Catholic church who have secretly allowed women to go through the ordination process and have ordained those women as Priests (though Rome does not recognize them as such).

Now I know you want some big gotcha moment and you are looking for ways that you can minimize and mock their beliefs, so by all means.... let loose with more of your stupidity. Show us how 'tolerant' you are of other people's beliefs.
