Let me get this straight:

On the one hand, priesthood was not important to Jesus, nor the early Church--at least according to liberal scholars.  On the other hand priesthood is important to the institutional Church.

Therefore, rather than call on the institutional Church to stop emphasizing the priesthood and stop ordaining people--to be in line with what liberal scholars think the early Church believed, you will instead demand the ordination of women?

Is that about right?
