Yes, a very very bad decision and again devalues the Christian Church. proving to me it is still stuck in medieval England! They still think man is THE master of the universe, forgetting all the grief MANkind has given to the World, and still does, with often the blessing of their church!   This makes me so angry!

This is one reason I do not subscribe to a set religious organization, preferring to instead as a Child Of God to worship God privately.

This proves the point I made on another thread; it is not just Islam that discriminate against women, although they can be worse.

Surely not  Stoneage Peasants

I would sooner have the real Stone age Peasants Cleggy, as at least they would probably be Pagan, and that religion openly accepts women in all respect

Granted

So the General Synod of the Church of England has voted against women becoming Bishops. 

Now I'm not religious but I'm not anti-religion either, but what I don't understand is how the Church of England or any of the other religious establishments can get away with banning women from a job! 

Are they exempt from discrimination and equality laws? and if so why? 

The Church develops but slowly...not too long ago (after 400 yrs ) they also accepted that Earth is a planet. So not to worry there's hope !

Could have a monkey as a bishop for all I care

[/highlight]





But that would mean Hartlepool would be Godless Cleggy!
















Oh hang on, it already is!!!!!

 

Better a monkey than a group of god bothers of dubious sexual orientation and practices

Wrong church, you are thinking of the Catholics...

Pope has now decided AD is wrong as Jesus was probably born before then, between 7 and 1BC.

This did make me laugh:

  Oh NO. Not the religious argument again..........
Simple question......If the bible supposedly states that there was never any prejudice against women then why were there never any female disciples? I can only assume that the gay brigade was rife even then 
Obviously someone, an instigator, is trying to stir the pot and that person is probably a female after a higher positon at the trough.
Its all religious b*llocks anyway cos there still is no proof even with all of the science that abounds today. If there is no scientific evidence then as far as I am concerned it was one big lie so a few could hold power over the masses.
If anyone wants to believe in it then its up to them, I just don't see why they should expect everyone else to be bound by their beliefs and partake of ceromonies that are meaningless to those who do not believe in their waffle.
Take the wedding vows.....until death do us part......and they say that there is life after death so why that restriction? Suffer little children to come unto me....why should innocent children suffer? Some god that is....even if he did/does exist you can keep him to yourself cos I dont want him if that is the type of person he is 
Bring it on.........but show the proof first!

Looking at the synod members you're not wrong, all happy boys and girls.

I agree with you  load of old codswallop
