Do you know why women are not allowed to become Pastors at your local church? The bottom-line answer is what Paul wrote in First Timothy 2:10-25
"A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. But I do not allow a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a wrongdoer."
Seriously, Google this question and look at all the twisted logic used to justify that a woman's role is not to lead. Now, think about this for a moment, and about all the people who fully believe in this stuff, who attended Sunday School as a kid, who grew up listening to their male pastors year after year.
Do you really think someone who believes a woman should never be pastor and lead a church congregation, is that person going to vote for a woman to be President and lead the country?
