I think you mean: KJV 1 Timothy 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

Thank you, I just could not remember the chapter and verse. I used to quote that to my x-wife very often. Perhaps thats why she is my x.

That would do it. This verse is now much corrupted by new, improved translations. Now a woman should not "teach in such a way as to usurp authority." That turns the verse inside out. In Greek it is very simple. The apostle says that he will not allow two things: 1) a woman to teach a man; 2) a woman to usurp authority over a man. Women's ordination has ruined every denomination embracing its hellish allure.
