Not a case of women's rights. The vote was a no because some Christians seem to think that the teachings of St Paul are more important than those of Jesus. It is only Paul that thinks women should be second to men.

I think it will be a short blip. I heard on the news they are talking about challenging the decision.

My question was how they could challenge the vote? Mythical ? My good fellow whatever next ? Tooth fairy ? Yeti ? Honest Politician ? Actually one of those I have seen evidence of , shame it's not the deity in question.
