"Misogynistic remarks" their letter suggests, are "not at all rare within certain quarters" of the Church.an interview with BBC News NI last month "Dr Mawhinney's comments ignore the fact that it has been the policy of the Presbyterian Church to ordain women to eldership for almost a century, and to the ministry for exactly fifty years," it continued.
"The signatories to this letter demand that Church authorities act immediately and without prevarication in order to repair the damage to the reputation of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland".
