The Saintly Sinner

Joan Acocella in The New Yorker concludes her review of "The two-thousand-year obsession with Mary Magdalene" saying
The young Bible scholars should have all our support, and we should agree with them that the energetic, far-seeing Magdalene of the Gnostic texts is good evidence that the Church should ordain women.

There might be a consensus building that all a church needs to give up in exchange for women's ordination is the Bible.
