Equal or complementary? Gender roles in faith traditions

Gender Roles

“While the Baptist faith and message says that, ‘The office of pastor is limited to men as qualified by scripture,’ there are many who call themselves ‘complementarians’ who are more flexible when it comes to women teaching men, or even preaching.” - RNS

NewNot "or" ... "and"

The very title question suggests the writers don’t actually understand complementarianism. … not “equal or complementary,” it’s “equal and complementary.”

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
