I feel strongly that like in France the Chuch should be completely separate from the State, however, as Her Majesty the Queen is head of the Church of England that is a bit tricky, but taken that she is the Head of the Church and very much a woman, how the hell do the potificating idiots in the C of E not let her Bishops be female also. Cos if as stated above the Bible is against women leaders how can they accept the queen? I think the word you are looking for is hypocrite Yes but the Queen is a figure head, as opposed to being an active working member of the church.

Re bible some what tricky. First problem it has been coppied and there for altered in the last lord alone knows how many thousand years. It has also been translated again that changes the txt! Just to put an even bigger spanner in the works the orriginals discovered in caves not so long back are not the same at all. There are even some books of the new testemant it would seem are missing and they feature women disciples!!!!! I never read any thing anti women in the bible and Jesus even talked with prostitues he had one at the last supper in the orriginals she was a disciple in the translated altered ones she is just there.............

Regardless of changes,the Christian faith is based on the Bible. It does seem that some members of the Church,feel they can bend or downright change parts of it as they feel fit though. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent” (1 Timothy . This is just one example, of what the arguments against women Bishops are based on.

Oh dear, this has just blown my true agnostic beliefs - looks like the Bible was right all along?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Timothy must have been a really smart bloke!

There's never been any doubt about the Bible's veracity, meldrew, and Timothy was just an ordinary bloke like you and me..........

Nah! suspect his missus had either PMT or was about 50 years old - he knew what he was saying!
