You belong to a church and have found out that the church's teachings or practices are the opposite of what is stated in the Bible. eg. The Bible states that there should be no images or statues but your church may have very large pictures and statues of the crucifix, etc; ... the Bible does not support women being pastors but your church may have women pastors. Would seeking the truth make you leave that church? Or would you remain because of tradition or tolerance?

But you people have been accusing Muslims of discriminating against women. Here, you are telling us that the bible does not support women being pastors, what do you call that?
