“If women are no different than men with regards to upper limb dexterity, then why can’t women become priests now?”

Such deep complexity of analysis ....

Raise your hand if you’re Sure.
Body odor? No problem.

I don’t know about that, Mark.

I think the “hands in the air” position is the universal sign for “I don’t know what to do with you anymore! You never listen to me!”

It is also sign language for a child’s (usually a male child) destruction of an item in the house in lieu of “I’m going to killl you!”

It clearly implies the the Queen of the Cats&Combs could fly. There’s even birds in the corners.

This has led some to conclude that if a woman was able to lift her hands above her shoulders as the image suggests, then early Christians must have allowed women to become priests.

Perhaps it is proof thast there were female football referees.

I thought you had to be able to raise your arms above your shoulders, and have opposing thumbs (so you can give "Communion") in order to become a priest.

LMAO!!!!

AH-ummm
She also has a priests scarf over her head....

Jesus taught that women were equals -

this was a threat to Jewish custom

this is why women had to be put back in their place - and they did this with Paul and Rome together by taking over the movement and rewriting the ‘rules’ - including making Mary M a whore - to hide her - and other womens - very real importance

Thanks for pointing out the satirical content. I was going to comment that this was the dumbest thing I had read this month. It’s not. It’s just not very funny.

Meh. She was probably just really into the latest worship chorus by Mattias Rubeus Hominis.

"She" appears to be wearing the shawl of a jewish rabbi saying blessings?

IMHO,

The head shawl sashes come straight down- "she" ain`t got no tits!

It`s a man.?

And "she" has no girdle belt that all Roman women wore then below the bodice.

It`s a man.

The footwear doesn`t match neither.

Coz they never showed the woman`s ankles n but men`s ankles, yes viz:
