@fuat2mb hmmm... I was explaining the baptist way of selecting a pastor. For myself I haven't given the process much thought. I guess I subscribe to 'the priesthood of all believers' instead of 'in persona Christi' or apostolic succession.
This would be based in ideas like 'the faith of Abraham' and 'Abraham's children act like Abraham'.
I also believe in the quality/capability of a pastor/priest (faith, vision, training, experience) and their relationship with the parishioners. However I've not given it serious theological thought, as I've not been involved in the process.
