I love it how patriarchal champions ignore these few facts about women and Jesus....in the G. of Mark Women were the only ones to....

Never make a mistake and get chastised by Christ

Understand and actually employ Jesus' teachings

Stick around after the Crucifixion and ya know, be the first to not only see the Risen Christ but be the ones to take the message to the fearful MEN who went hiding......

I'm retired due to a shoulder injury (repetitive strain injury from computers -- not martial arts), but I reached brown belt before my health cratered due to the RSI. I'd love to resume, but would have to find something a lot less jarring than karate.

What style are you studying?

Cool! I'll go check them out. Thanks Giant Space Amoeba and armory staff!! :wave: :notworthy:

Here's my current dojo. I really like it.

I also did a couple years of kenpo. I really enjoyed that.

Sounds like you may be able to take something like Aikido or Tai Chi since you can't break boards with your teeth anymore.

A nice "soft" style.

Dude, this isn't just a little weird; this is a total denial of the Gospel message. Separation was the Old Covenant. The Pharisees were, literally, the "separate ones".

Separation does not make things holy or give them powers; it removes them from holiness, and takes away their powers.

If ordination "separates" people, it is a very bad idea.

Wow. What a great movie.

It's interesting, how some of the prison guards have mercy, and even love for the inmates. While some of the guards take advantage of their power, and cause the inmates much needless suffering.

We were talking about that movie at work yesterday. It's awesome. A nice morality tale.

It's usually a woman who marches in when men fear to tread.

AND? And maybe you should go back and read over the last thread and see what the "patriarchal Champions" have actually said on this issue. :wave:
