Say What??

I don't believe that God has banned women from leadership roles over men outside of the church.
Now, you and I can go round and round from now till Doomsday about this but I doubt either one of us will change our mind. If you don't want to vote for woman, fine, then don't.
However, no one has a Biblical warrant to question anyone's walk with the Lord who has no problem with voting for a woman.
Hunh??
If this is directed at me, I don't get it. I have not, nor do I "question anyone's walk with the Lord", based on whom he or she votes for, nor have I ever on the BB.
I said nothing about any woman, nor ever believing this, at all. I, in fact, have voted for many women, when I considered them to be the better candidate, including more than once to potentially become the Governor of the Commonwealth of KY. One I voted for won that office; the other(s) did not. As Gov. Martha Layne Collins is the only woman who has been elected Governor of KY to date, she obviously was the one I voted for, who won. (BTW, I also have voted for her opponent, and more than once, as well, for another high office.)
I did make a point to oppose a certain woman for State Treasurer of KY, in the last election, because I thought she was a hypocrite, in and with her stance, but not because she was a woman, by any stretch.
I have not yet, to date, voted for a woman for President of the United States, but have nothing against one,
per se. I am not sure of whom I will vote for, in the 2008 primary, at all, for as I have already said, those race(s) may well be, at least effectively, decided before I ever can step into the voting booth on May 20, 2008.
[Edited to add!] While we have had a few Amendments added since 1880, including the right of Women to vote, that was not what I was referring to, previously.
