A female referee was going to referee the game, except the athletic director of this school refused to allow her to do so.
"That would be putting a woman in a position of authority over boys, he was told — a scenario that was contrary to beliefs at St. Mary’s Academy."
Now this kind of archaic thinking is what you'd expect from Muslims, not Christians. And I'm like.... what? These are boys - boys who presumably do what their mother tells them to do. What are they going to do when a female police officer stops them for a traffic violation, I wonder, tell her that since she's a woman they don't have to do what she says? Or do all the boys of this school go straight into the church where they don't have to worry about dealing with the female of the species?
Removal of woman referee by religious school has some crying foul
