I'm curious if they've been able to pick a replacement out of the hundreds and hundreds of men applying for the position of Sunday School teacher. I mean, they must be absolutely swamped with applications.

The letter quoted the first epistle to Timothy: "I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent."
