Yeah I know this is unlikely due to Pauline (and other) influence in Christianity. If need be, I'm fine moving this to ASB so people don't spam the thread with complaints about implausibility.
With that said, what would be the impact of a female only priesthood within Christianity or a similarly widespread monotheistic religion, preferably within the Roman Empire and beyond?
I would imagine this would have immense impact on the diffusion of political power and education.
