Sorry to be so long in replying; sometimes (not often) there is life beyond the computer.

I wasn't saying that dealing with one (or several) good women priests changed my mind. I was never against women priests in principle ... I just didn't think I would want to be in the congregation of one. (Episcopalians don't like change ... or at least we DIDN'T)

Actually, the best two priests I ever had were homosexual ... but we didn't know it. They were totally in the closet and unavowed; we just found out later. Recalling how good they were does NOT make me approve of ordaining homosexuals.

You made a decent argument if I had been against the woman thing in principle but liked it in the particular, but that is not the case.

I see what you mean.

But then we have to look at what Scripture says about pastors and women in authority.
