There has never been any more consistent indicator that an organization has gone round the theological bend than when they start ordaining women. There is not one single example to the contrary. Men have done their level best to make places disintegrate at times but the effect of ordained women is 100% degeneration.

"OK," I asked myself, "how can anyone even take such silliness seriously?"

Then I made the mistake of looking at "Woke Preachers," the YouTube channel that it came from and, it went from silliness to downright scariness: the Great Commission as the source and driving force behind systemic racism and oppression all of which is perpetuated in the Apostles', the Nicene, and, "God forbid, the Athanasian" creeds; the use of the definite article "the" in hymns (such as "the poor" or "the lame") as an expression of "othering," keeping people at a distance and implying that they are defined by some circumstance that makes "them" all alike and privileges us to feel superior since we are better than they are.

Kyrie eleison!
