It's the 21st century for Heaven's sake!

It appears that those opposed to the idea of women bishops base their argument on the fact that the Bible says that Jesus chose twelve men as his disciples.  Regular readers will know that I have little time for organised religion and find the whole business rather silly, but I would have thought that if you were going to base your view on following what you believe to be Jesus's ideas, then surely the question should not be what did he do two thousands years ago, but what would he do today? And do you really believe a modern-day Jesus would only pick men?
