If women are supposed to be silent in the church, why are Protestants making them into ministers?

St. Paul wrote that women are to be silent in the Church.

And yet, the Protestant denominations are making women into priests, bishops, pastors and ministers.

Is this a part of the Bible that Protestants say just doesn't count any more?

Is obedience to Biblical teaching an OPTION now?
 
Even evangelical denominations have women ministers, or wives of ministers who preach to the congregation.

Apparently, obedience to the Bible is optional for some people.

If you're ordaining women, that's the same as taking the Bible and tearing out the pages you don't like, and flipping them in the trash can.

So you don't like people tearing out different pages from the ones you tear out?

converted to Judaism

Everything Paul wrote down is part of the Bible, so if you attack what he says, you attack the Bible.

Which part of the Bible did I tear out?

You support slavery, or killing a kid if they get a little mouthy?
Is that in the Bible? Please quote, chapter and verse.

And yet Jesus elevated women wherever he went.

Christ dined with prostitutes and tax collectors. He flaunted religious rules about the Sabbath. He cared nothing about what people in his culture thought of his actions. If it was his intent to ordain women, the combined disapproval of the entire world could not have stopped him.

Are you going to pretend you didn't know this was in there?

Leviticus 25:44-46: 44As for your male and female slaves whom you may have—you may acquire male and female slaves from the pagan nations that are around you. 45Then, too, it is out of the sons of the sojourners who live as aliens among you that you may gain acquisition, and out of their families who are with you, whom they will have produced in your land; they also may become your possession. 46You may even bequeath them to your sons after you, to receive as a possession; you can use them as permanent slaves. But in respect to your countrymen, the sons of Israel, you shall not rule with severity over one another.

Deuteronomy 21:18-21King James Version (KJV)
18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:

19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;

20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.

21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
