[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you ever feel conflicted about following the teachings of a church that refuses to ordain women and allows pedophiles to thrive in its hierarchy?[/quote] refusing to ordain women is just a reflection of christ having no female apostles.  not ordaining women is not a sin, so it's passable.  pedophiles are there and definately of satanic influence most are gay as well so it's a double.  everybody is a sinner, everybody needs jesus the church is wrong in a civil manner not to turn the small minority of pedophiles over to the law, but the soul is for God to handle,  Jesus decides.  The unly unforgivin sin is the unconfessed sin.[/quote]

Well, I think Jesus did have a female apostle, Mary Magdalene. There is a Gospel according to Mary, although it isn't included in the canon (just like several other gospels that were discovered later...like Gospel according to Thomas). Peter had his own reasons for excluding Mary from the recorded history, like to start with the fact that Mary said that Jesus had shared things with her he hadn't shared with anyone else. Who did Jesus appear to first after the resurrection? That's right, Mary Magdalene. Who told the other apostles he was risen? Yep.

The church doesn't have female priests because they are preserving an established way of life (a way of life I might add that allowed rampant sexual transgressions to persist for years.)[/quote]
