But you are a member of a church that is opposed to contraception and abortion, and that views homosexual acts as a sin and opposes same sex marriage.
Your church also will not ordain women, partly because of what Paul said in I Corinthians:
34 women are to remain quiet in the assemblies, since they have no permission to speak: theirs is a subordinate part, as the Law itself says.
35 If there is anything they want to know, they should ask their husbands at home: it is shameful for a woman to speak in the assembly.
and in I Timothy:
9 Similarly, women are to wear suitable clothes and to be dressed quietly and modestly, without braided hair or gold and jewellery or expensive clothes;
10 their adornment is to do the good works that are proper for women who claim to be religious.
11 During instruction, a woman should be quiet and respectful.
12 I give no permission for a woman to teach or to have authority over a man. A woman ought to be quiet,
13 because Adam was formed first and Eve afterwards,
14 and it was not Adam who was led astray but the woman who was led astray and fell into sin.
15 Nevertheless, she will be saved by child-bearing, provided she lives a sensible life and is constant in faith and love and holiness.
I'm sure your priest is lovely and and your mum's priest was lovely (NAPALT? 😂) but how can you not see the hypocrisy here?
