Power structures only ever lead to oppression. Power always seeks to keep and expand power. Always.

So here, in your world view, you have a system where women are doing the work of building and keeping things running while men hold the power, determine the direction, and horde all the accolades while never doing any of the things (things that are deemed beneath the role of a leader) that will educate them on the people they seek to lead and what their needs and strengths are.

Uh huh.

Ever work someplace or hear someone talk about how someone deserving did not get promoted up after busting their rear for years over some punk upstart fresh out of college who’s going to come and ‘lead us all to glory’? Can you hear the collective groans? Can you feel the company wide depression seeping in? Kinda sucks to work so hard for so long and be dismissed like you don’t matter doesn’t it? So how does that usually work out? Doesn’t the talent usually leave for greener pastures where they do get their hard earned promotion? Doesn’t the punk upstart usually fall flat on their face? Doesn’t the company fail to thrive as those who stay are no longer engaged or invested but just getting by, dealing with a malaise they feel but don’t understand as best they can?

Why in God’s name would you promote a model known for failure as the best that can be done to build the church and spread the Word? I have to ask… have you even read the Gospel? Jesus was clearly an egalitarian. If Jesus and Paul say something contradictory, who’s views take primacy? Interesting that there’s always a push to choose what benefits human power structures over what benefits God, don’t you think? What do you think that says?
