In other words, women leaders are not a sign of God's blessing but of his judgment on a corrupt church.
Do you see where i am coming from now?

As a Catholic, I don't believe there should be women bishops. I have traditional Catholic views, and I think why should we have women bishops or anything else that the catholic church is against, if the bible is against it? If you get what I'm saying. I mean, its a religious situation so why do unreligious things? You can't be in a religion and say 'We will have women bishops, but won't have gay marriage', if you choose to be in a religion you should stick to their views and stop changing rules to suit the world today. If you don't agree with it, don't join the religion.
Sorry if you don't get me, I will try explain more clearly if someone wants me to!
