Obesessions, Shawn, Geoff etc
Ah now Geoff, you know that the Anglican Church is one true Church, albeit with just a few minor faults, mainly in Sydney over equality and ordination of women where Melbourne is just about completely right. The new women minister at our church is good.
Alas, there are a few egos involved in the Sydney church and everywhere, (more than a few, more like truck loads of ego), and the Gary maxim 'Don't trust anyone who has been in a position too long' certainly applies to the church-- all those important people robed, dressed up and glorious, parading up and down, up front taking the service, oh marvelous!
And 'too long' really is not a very long time at all for important people to become important.
Being a bsf LEADER you would understand Geoffery.
Now Shawn, reader of the bible and taking it to be litterally true, please explain that Jesus on a few occasions called himself 'the good shepherd' and even 'the gate' and 'the way', I thought from reading the scriptures that before his minister he was a carpenter!
Please tell me what role a woman should have in a church, anything more than making the coffee? Is playing the piano or organ ok, is having a piano ok? Can a woman carry the cross in a proper procession, you people do have proper processions, how do you help the egos of the important people otherwise? And is any of it important as long as we believe the truth.
Gary
