        @BBCBreaking surely they can be done for sex discrimination. If they were a golf club or any other institution they would be. #synod

        @BBCBreaking Unbelievable! Unbiblical! UnChristian! Sex discrimination. The theology doesn't stand up to treat women priests differently!

        @BBCBreaking Just wait until a M-2-F transsexual applies for a Bishopric ! That'll get the Synod hot under their various collars.

        @BBCBreaking I think this could be an opportunity for the women to be appointed as bishop-beside-women are more logic than men ;)
