Talk, talk and more talk!  How has anything he has done indicate even remotely raising the level of women in Cuba?  So he is going to talk with people from Palestine, indigenous and workers in all these places.  I bet they will all be men.  He has done a lot of good things but that does not raise the level of women in the church.  One has to divest themselves from what he has done in the world and what he is doing within the church and limit the replies to the article.We read a wonderful letter as to why one woman felt she had to leave.  Most here wholly agreed with her letter.  Now you say he is doing so much for women?  I happen to be a woman so I have a vested interest in seeing women taking their rightful place within the church and no amount of jibber-jabber can change that.  And I don't mean a token woman with no authority.  That's what this article was about not what he has done in the world.
