Love Me 2 mentioned patriarchy. I responded. Quite frankly I am glad he is open with his faith's male supremacy instead of trying to white wash it.Please stay on topic or start your own thread.
Well it is true that in Islam all of the angels are male. Now while it is not explicitly stated in Christianity or Judaism of the angels genders many of these groups say that they are all masculine anyways. However in some Christian works of angelology certain angels are mentioned which are said to be female. Two I have heard of are named Bath Kol and Ardousius. However whether they are accepted by Christians is up to debate. There is alot of evidence from the Bible and other works that the Holy Spirit is the feminine aspect of the Godhead and in fact the Holy Spirit in Judaism, the Shekhinah is viewed in feminine terms. However even still this is not orthodox among Christians and even Christians and Jews will always say that Yahweh is masculine and must be viewed in masculine terms. The only Christians I know of who even believe in the Feminine Divine are the Branch Davidians (not the particular ones who followed David Koresh) and certain Gnostic groups. By the way Collyridians do not count as it is explicitly a separate religion that disregards Jesus and the male Abrahamic god.You can most certainly have Female ordained priests . Though at this moment not in the Roman Catholic Faith . Only the other year our Moderator of the Church of Scotland was a female . The Church in England has many ordained female priests .
So you believe that "God" only has Male Angels ?
I think it's funny that that guy up-thread insinuated that Maria was somehow nicer to Muslims.

Please, you were trying to accuse her of being a Allah loving Christian hater without having the nads to just say it outright.

Back on topic . Francis , for the length of time that he has been Pontiff . The way he has spoken out about many things is getting better .
^Seemingly a lot don,t bother . They do not seem to see his hand raised in support of taking the Church into the 21st century .

You're reading what the media said he said .. not what he said. The focus of the RCC is salvation for all.
PS to Love me 2: Obama is crazy like a skunk.
The Pope hardly checkmates anyone. He is virtually slain by intellectuals and the academic elite who refute the barbaric teachings of Catholicism.About those many things...Does anyone bother to read between the lines? The Pope seems to be playing the proverbial Chess game with the Media, as he knows they don't read between the lines, or read entire interviews he has given....the Media pick and chooses their battle grounds unwisely. The Pope plays the proverbial Chess game just like Obama does, and then eventially checkmates his enemies.
In the Nativity my family trots out every December all the angels are female. I grew up thinking all Angels were female because of that. I'm not sure where the SBC actually stands on the subject. I can't remember ever hearing this discussed at church.
The GOP/TP in Congress are 1000% crazier than Obama.
