And another thought.....is it ok for a man to usurp authority just because he's a man?
The answer is no! Usurp means to use ones own authority and is often equated with forcibly overruling the designated authority. We must all be subject to the higher power in our lives.
Are you saying you were equating the two? If so please provide scriptures backing up your stance. If not, let those who are do so please.

God did it for us. Out of sheer generosity he put us in right standing with himself. A pure gift. He got us out of the mess we're in and restored us to where he always wanted us to be. And he did it by means of Jesus Christ. ~Romans 3:24 from The Message

Ummm...if you read the other posts I made, I basically asked the same question you did, which is why I said I'd hoped that you'd been answered, since I asked after your post was made. I assure you that I'm not stopping anyone from answering.....LOL!
But you haven't been answered as of yet, I see.

Women preachers are good unless they preach like a man, in which case I'd sooner endure having a blind dentist with stubby fingers do a root canal on an abscessed tooth using a dull drill.
In the same way, I'd sooner spend a hot day working on the back of a garbage truck than to spend five minutes on a padded pew in an air conditioned sanctuary listening to a lisping, mincing male preacher.

Although I WOULD ask him to do my hair afterwards.
So how many here would walk off the job if a woman ever became their manager?
I've worked in the corporate world for some years now and there have been a few women managers that I wanted to drop kick out the door.
