    So, women aren't allowed to get senior jobs in the church <doh>

    Bishop status shall not be theirs!

    I was thinking of posing the question of "How do the church get away with such things in 2012?"

    But honestly, we're talking about the same organisation that defends child abusers from the law.

    Anyone going to evensong tonight?

    I think you are getting your churches mixed up.

    What possible difference does it make?

    Religion is the culprit here... does it matter which church label is on it?

    I like your signature, although you forgot to add "...and sacks managers at the drop of a Russian hat"

    Me neither but I suspect the CofE hierarchy is populated by the sort of men who didn't want to allow women into the MCC, various golf clubs or the Masons. I'd imagine that a lot of them who said no are also concerned that women will add to the competition when they apply for posts as bishops......

    I don't really see this as being a religious issue but rather the typical self serving behaviour of the landed gentry

    I think it's great. The more they show themselves as antiquated and out of touch the easier it will be for the general populace to see that they are full of **** <ok>

    Our church leaders are both kind and talented.

    No.

    Women, ****s and Lezzers should know their place in society.
