More. The response to the article merits a new article.

Apparently the original article was on the front page of the NYT.

I think we should expand the role of women as far as the doctrine allows us to. That is if there is no prohibition then we should include women.

Why not female Sunday School presidents and financial clerks and the like?

We are leaving too much talent on the bench and stretching our male leaders too thin.
