Response to Original message
41. I recall a LTTE in my college newspaper
and the writer stated emphatically that "Women can't be leaders." Later in the letter he said that "We need to get back to our Christian foundation set forth in the King James Bible" (and that the King James version was the only "true" translation).

That got me to thinking...from whom did King James inherit the throne?

:rofl: Women can't be leaders. Yeah, right.
