If we have followed the news we know what the Taliband stood for. We know the Religious fundamentalism or extremism is rampant in the Islamic community. We are aware of the contrast between this extremism and the freedoms we all enjoy in our society.
Well ladies and gentlemen we have religious extremism in our own back yard.
from WWNY TV 7 in Watertown, NY
A longtime Sunday school teacher told 7 News Wednesday that she has been dismissed apparently because she is a woman.
Mary Lambert, who has taught Sunday School at Watertown's First Baptist Church for 54 years, said she received a letter from church leaders telling her she can no longer teach at the church.
According to Lambert, the letter states that church leaders adopted a scriptural approach to Sunday school teachers.
Lambert said the letter quotes 1 Timothy 2:11 of the New Testament: "I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she is to keep silent."

Man is the root word of Woman, just as Male is the root word of Female. Heaven forbid the church ever find this out... It might just signal the coming of the Four Whorseman.
