Thankful?
Are you kidding me?
I mean, I could believe it, I guess, because of the cultural context, but, it just seems so extreme!
Can you tell me where I could find this opinion in print? I've still got a bunch of old books on my shelf but I don't want this sort of thing in my house for sure! That's just ridiculous.
Honestly, the lack of knowledge of Christian history revealed in such a statement is astonishing. Women weren't even permitted speak on such topics for most of the last 2000 + years!
How can they be "silent in the church" and simultaneously the leaders of the heresies??? :rollingeyes2:
