[Vision2020] on ordaining women

Its nice to know that all the littler girls sitting in Doug's congregation looking forward to such dreams as preaching in a holy house of their own were just brainwashed into believing that somehow their lack of male genitalia makes them inferior in every way to the other half of the population and thus can never aspire to be equal to men.  I wonder if the female members of the church enjoy being told they are unequal and being emotional beaten when they come to celebrate god with their fellow religious community?  But come on folks, it's not just Doug.  When was the last time there was a female pope?

Doug Wilson today on the ordination of Anglican/Episcopalian women as bishops:

"Putting on a bishop's mitre is not behaving like a woman. It is behaving like an ecclesiastical dyke."
It'll be a great day when a woman's call to Christian ministry is encouraged by the church when proved authentic by the Fruit of the Spirit within her, and a male minister can't rest on gender superiority when he consistently produces pastoral fruit unbecoming to the faith.  I question the pastoral call of a man who mocks his Christian sisters solely on the basis of their pursuit of ordination in a historic Christian denomination.  These women remain accountable to their denominations.  They don't run off and form new ones that guarantee that they and their best buddies will prosper, and they figure that genitalia and gender do not a minister make -- or break.  

If maleness qualifies Wilson for ministry, surely vitriol and vapidity should disqualify him.  There is no "father hunger" so great as to warrant his continued presence in the pulpit, much less his continued identification as a Christian minister.
