Hi all, The front page of BBC shows a pic of a woman priest. We don't have women priests in the churches in our city [I am not a Christian but I have gone to churches]. Are women priests common in other places? Cheers Smitha Every person, all the events of your life, are there because you have drawn them there.

A woman minister/pastor/whatever (not a priest) officiated our wedding. I don't think it's a rarity in California.

CG is a Christian who’s Christian name is Christian, And when a Christian’s Christian name is Christian, You know the Christian’s thoughts on Christian priests, Will be as Christian as a Christian’s thoughts can be.Nish p.s. I bet you are all glad I never took to poetry ;-)

Smitha Vijayan wrote: Are women priests common in other places? That depends. AFAIK, we don't have many around here, regardless of billboards wishing for the contrary. Christian churches aren't supposed to have women officiating, though that wouldn't be the first deviation to be allowed. As for other religions... well, an old send-up of a certain gospel song reminds us:
In the church of Aphrodite, The priestess wears a see-through nightie, She's a mighty righteous sightie, And she's good enough for me!
:rolleyes: How do you move in a world of fog, That's always changing things? Makes me wish that i could be a dog, When i see the price that you pay.

1 Timothy 2:12-15 12 But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 13 For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression. 15 But women will be preserved through the bearing of children if they continue in faith and love and sanctity with self-restraint.
"Garfield: The Movie" is poised to hit theaters this summer. I'm impressed that they've been able to take a 2D character with a 1D personality and bloat it into a 3D disaster. With a tagline like "it's all about ME-OW," you can be guaranteed the cinematic equivalence of having your hand fed to a wood chipper when this mind-dump hits the screen. -Maddox

I believe this came down to the idea that women are supposed to defer to their husbands, and thus it would be improper for them to speak before men.

There are quite a lot of women ordained in the UK now. Sadly, there is still a lot of prejudice amongst some parts of the church :(( Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D
