Zechariah,

I do not see it as an issue of political correctness because I have seen the Holy Spirit working in my own life and others in recent years in ways that I had never seen before, including using women powerfully in leadership roles in the church. I compare this discussion to the issue in the early church over taking the Gospel to the gentiles because it was anathema to Jews, but the power of the Holy Spirit was too obvious for them to argue. So I think the persistence of argument against the ordination of women where it is socially acceptable gives us clear evidence of a greater problem than the issue being argued. That issue is people being more interested in arguing than they are in seeking the Holy Spirit so they can be guided and empowered as God has He promised. Keep arguing is you wish. But as for me, I want to be effective doing the ministry He has given me so more people can be ready to see Jesus return.
