It was the women who were more loyal to Christ at the time of his death. The men ran.

So, in your opinion, Christ made a stupid mistake in choosing twelve males as His Apostles.

Too bad He didn't have you around back then to straighten Him out.

Or . . . there is the outside possibility that He knew more than you do.

Just putting that out there.

Christ lived in a male dominated society. Things are different now. If he chose the 21st century to reveal himself I can guarantee you that women would be chosen.Fact is that in his entourage women played major roles but the writers of the gospels, all men never reported on those events. Again the male dominated society. Mary Magdaline was a major player and it was she who first witnessed the risen Christ. So here Christ elevates women to the same level as men. Get the message?
