This is a fascinating subject that is to often overwhelmed by feminism when the subject really is the priesthood and its purpose. Notwithstanding the arguments as presented by Stephen that Timothy and Paul both spoke against women speaking in Church, I submit we have, once again, encountered the awful construct that the Holy Bible is unassailable, the perfect and completely reliable Word of God as written. Let us recall its history. It is the inspired work of many men and women [let us not forget the contributions of Eve, Sariah, Eshter, Ruth, Mary, and the Magdalene, and others]. However, even if each book's author's scrolls were once had, every one of them is lost to history. What have we? Copies, transliterations, translations only. Maybe not as well inspired as those who wrote their original manuscripts. Maybe some better than others. Y'all know the game of children in a circle or a line. One whispers a brief story to the next, and each repeats the story to the next until all have heard it. The last openly tells the story as he/she heard it. It is ot the same, even with a limited number of children, not centuries of generations into millennia. The story has changed and that is inevitable. Even if the children write rather than tell the story one to another, the story changes. The same game is conducted by adults, and the story changes. And we expect a book we hold in hand today, all over the world in its many languages, to be the infallible Word of God? Excuse me while I laugh. He didn't write it in the first place; He inspired it, but must deal with the inadequacies of even well meaning men, let alone those who would deceive.
So, how can we know what is, and is not true, biblically? Ask God. He knows, and will readily reveal it. But we have to ask.
So, what have we relative to women? They are just as sincere, well-intended, or corrupt as men. However, look at the representation of Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling, specifically at the center panel: the Creation of Adam. There is Adam, at arm's length from God and His outstretched right finger on His right, outstretched arm. What of God's left arm, also perfect, divine, and protective. It, said Mickey, himself, embraces Eve in her creation. So, which is the more honored by God? I declare that Eve is God's beloved daughter, and her female children, likewise. They are the ultimate creation; after God created man. Woman holds that high distinction. In the end, while men use tools [such as the priesthood] women and daughters use their hearts. And women are endowed with the power of creation more akin to that used by God, but on this side of the veil, than any man ever has or ever will hold. Therein is the beauty and majesty of woman. I revere her with all my heart. A woman does not need the tool of the priesthood. She is already endowed with the power of God. I'd start listening to her if I were you.
