Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori - Day1 Conversations Part 1

[ScottMacFie]

Is the ECUSA the whitest church in the world? It has to be. You go to a Southern Baptist congregation and you see diversity all over, whites, blacks (africans esp), latinos. You go to the ECUSA and everyone looks like her. So so so white.

Why does she dress like a man?

[LawdHelp]

@singapore7773 You're all over Youtube asking why +KJS dresses "like a man." Where are you? Do women not wear pants in your country? This is the United States, where women can have careers - even as Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church - and wear whatever they please.

[singapore7773]

@LawdHelp i am in Santa Cruz ca. Yes women here dress like men too. I was just asking an obvious question. Why? if i wore a dress to work i would be fired.

[LawdHelp]

@singapore7773 Seriously? What should a woman wear, in your opinion? Are pants ok? What about a suit jacket? Men dress in skirts and dresses of various sorts all over the world. Are Saudi men in thawbs "cross-dressing"? Or Scots in kilts? It's really a silly question. Wear a dress to work. It's California.

[singapore7773]

@LawdHelp I didnt know KSJ was in saudi or scotland my bad. Like i said if i wore a dress to work i would be fired. This idea that it doesnt matter is as Benedict XVI said the Tyranny of Relativism

[singapore7773]

i understand u can wear what ever u please. Just wondering why?

[singapore7773]

at least i am not all over youtube cross dressing.

[LawdHelp]

@singapore7773 What makes it "cross dressing"? The pants? The suit? She doesn't dress like "a man." She dresses very similarly to other bishops, most of whom are men. But if you research it, you'll notice that other female bishops in the Episcopal Church dress in similar, simple style.

I like her remarks. She is discussing her duties as Bishop which are mostly administrative. That's why Bishops were created in the New Testament, for the administration of a growing and increasingly diverse Church. Shalom, Bishop.

[tastiergerm]

@mghbluphi5 If you had read I Timothy 2 and Titus then you would know that Church elders (Bishops) should be able to teach and be husbands of one wife. Paul enjoins believers that women not have spiritual authority over men. She contradicts God's Word every time she speaks as a Bishop.

[steakman1989]

@tastiergerm Except that women in St. Paul's time were ordained as Deacons and Presbyters. St. Paul even praises women in leadership roles of the Church.

No gospel for her

[the13thof12]

Funny, when asked what her responsibilities as bishop would be she didn't mention the gospel. How unrestrictive it must be to be a heretic.
