“Your choice of scripture to promote women pastors is interesting. In 2 Corinthians 14 and 1 Timothy 2, “Paul” (depending on who you believe wrote these passages) clearly states that women should not speak in church, much less teach or lead. “

Jay, if one does not know how to read a chapter in context, and lifts out sentences and pieces of sentences, one can indeed make them say anything they want. BTW I think you meant 1 Cor. 14. But if you read 1 Timothy chapter one as a whole, you will not find any new ‘law’ that forbids women from teaching or leading. Same thing with 1 Cor. 14.
