I received an email from AToday with a subject that said in part: "GC Seeks Greater Authority in Ordinations."

I do not wish to receive emails that contain falsehoods like this.

"... all of the official panels ... have found that there are no teachings in the Bible or the Adventist heritage (including the writings of Ellen G. White) that would not permit the ordination of both men and women on an equal basis."

The TOSC came to three different positions. Two of the three concluded that being male was a biblical requirement for the office in question. Therefore, I can't see how the above statement can possibly be true.

Further, it doesn't take much searching at http://docs.adventistarchives.org/ to find that early Adventist periodicals repeatedly interpreted Paul's counsel in the same way. "No teachings in ... the Adventist heritage"? That simply is a false statement.
