The first thing that I want to say is that I have met some women that would be wonderful deacons and pastors. It is not a matter of ability, but eligibility. I liken this to my daughter; she took AP Government in High School, she probably understood the electoral process better that anyone I knew,

GOD SAID IT, THAT ENDS IT
One of my pet peeves is a bumper sticker. It reads; "God said it, I believe it and that ends it."

YOU HAVE VALUE
I have a here a $20 bill -- how much is it worth? (WHO WANTS IT?)
What if I tear it?
What if I crumple it up?
What if I throw it on the floor and stomp on it?
