Re: Women Bishop
The argument here is so faulty that it's laughable.
The same set of scriptures that people are trying to use to support the "men as bishops only" argument also contain statements like "I suffer women not to TEACH" and "Women should be silent in church".
However, these same folks will send women to UPC sanctioned Bible Colleges for "Christian Education" degrees, and will use women to teach Sunday School, run the Ladies Auxiliary department, and allow them to sing in church.
NOW, who's rewriting scripture?
It's a "take what I want, ignore the rest" mentality and it's prevalent in churches everywhere. Completely delegitimizes the argument.
