"When the church's secondary teachings cause sickness and death, there is something wrong with that teaching," she said. "Just as cultural practices may have been fine until they kill people, so the church's teachings may have been fine, even harmless, until they kill people."

I completely, disagree.  Customs that oppress & discriminate do great harm to people & the world without killing anyone & usually when these customs are done torturing or diminishing the humanity of a group, they then eventually start to kill. No custom in our church, incl. ordination customs, should be allowed to continually strip women of all real opportunities to use their natural & spiritual talents, or be given same education from our church, or given same sacraments and respect as their brothers.  We should not keep evil in place until it kills people. 

90% of Egyptian girls have their sex organs cut off because their religion says they don't deserve sexual pleasure.  Later on many die in child birth.
