The Bible Doesn't Like Women, See Why by Nobody: 6:58pm On Nov 18, 2018 |
I consider my self a great Feminist, and a Christian but recently something is disturbing me. Actually I was talking to my mother the other day and the topic of gender roles came up. She's a strong Christian. She mentioned that in the Bible it says that the woman's curse (when they get kicked out of the garden of eden) is to lust after the power men have, but that men will always rule over them.
I am shocked, What is your take Feminists and Ladies ? 2 Likes 1 Share |

Religion has never favoured women.Always putting women in bad light and as a source of men's misfortunes. A simple Google search on verses and articles on how Abrahamic religions see women would make you dumbfounded. When I was religious reading a bible passage on how women needed to keep shut in the church made me begin to ask questions. The way religion sees women as second class beings was one of the reasons I left it . Funny enough women seem to be more religious than men.And a visit to some religious houses you would see how the population of women in these worship centers supercedes that of men. 8 Likes 3 Shares |

For a Sex that gifted us : - Eve - Who sold her virginity and mankind for half unripe apple. Delilah - That used her fish hole to kill the destiny of a born leader. Those two girls that raped their father in the Old Testament. (Imagine!) Naomi - Lost her husband but was still hustling the owner of that farm for food. Even Bible is tired of associating with women. Except for their much needed procreative role, and Mary way try for Jesus. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Ladyhippolyta88: YOU DON'T NEED BIBLE PASSAGES TO KNOW THIS, LADYHIPPOLYTA. JUST LOOK AROUND THE MAJOR CULTURES IN THE WORLD AND HOW THEY MISTREAT AND DOWNGRADE WOMEN. THEY DEFEND THEIR RIGHTS TO DO THAT BY POINTING TO THEIR DIFFERENT RELIGIONS AND SADLY, THEIR RELIGIOUS BOOKS AND THE PROPHETS WHO CONSTRUCTED THEM FOUNDED SUCH BIZARRE MEASURES, AS INSTRUCTED BY WHICHEVER VERSION OF GOD THE PEOPLE BELIEVE IN. YET, IN ALL OF THESE THERE ARE MILLIONS OF WOMEN WHO SMILE AND PRETEND TO ENJOY THEIR GOD'S PLAN FOR THEM. THE BIBLE HAVE SUCCEEDED IN MAKING WOMEN BELIEVE THEY WERE CREATED FROM A MAN'S BONE, THUS, INFERIOR AND INCAPABLE OF EXISTING WITHOUT HIM, AND WOMEN BELIEVE THIS. SOME RELIGIONS HAVE SUCCESSFULLY MADE WOMEN BELIEVE THAT THEY DESERVE TO BE FLOGGED AND STONED FOR PURIFICATION. A PARTICULAR RELIGION SET WIDOWS ON FIRE TO PLEASE THEIR DEAD HUSBANDS' SPIRITS. A RELIGION BELIEVE THAT NON-VIRGIN WOMEN ARE WORTHLESS, AND THE ONLY WORTH OF VIRGIN WOMEN IS TO BE AMONG THE MANY WIVES OF A MAN. ANOTHER RELIGION PERMITS MEN TO DO WHATEVER THEY LIKE, AND DRESS IN ANYWAY THAT MAKES THEM COMFORTABLE... BUT THEIR WOMEN MUST BE WRAPPED UP LIKE MUMMIES, AND SIT AT HOME ALL DAY. I'VE SAID IT BEFORE, AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN. RELIGIONS WERE DESIGNED TO CONTROL PEOPLE, AND TO DEHUMANIZE WOMEN. 13 Likes 4 Shares |

CAPSLOCKED: Sad but true. The Bible has always placed the man above the woman "But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God." (I Corinthians 11:3) "For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man." (I Corinthians 11:8-9) "Let the women learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression." (I Timothy 2:11-14) 3 Likes |

AND THERE IS NOTHING WRITTEN BY PAUL THAT DIDN'T COME FROM YAWEH AND JESUS AS HIS SOURCE OF INSPIRATION. IF THEY FELT HE WAS PREACHING TRASH THEY WOULD HAVE SILENCED HIM OR SOMETHING.

Amakavula:Not only bible, Muslim own is even worst to their women. At least, in Christianity today, not in the olden testament, Jesus came to liberate us from all manner of slavery, he never demeaned women rather saved them. Women were ahead in all his doings on earth, he never condemned women. He came and abolished the laws of the old testament and gave us freedom. Any misogynist verse you read in the new testament were written by paul. And he always indicates that it's not of God but of him. Meaning, the instructions weren't from God rather of him. 1 Like |

So you believe that because a man has a joystick he is forever greater than his female counterpart. Apostle Paul is a well known misogynist. I have always believed that his epistles were directed to the people he wrote them to which were meant to address the issues at that time. A sensible person would know that those texts are not applicable to the 21st century.I wonder why Africans would clinge to Jewish mythological texts. ikhileomotayo: |

LADYHIPPOLYTA88 THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO CONVINCE WOMEN THAT THEIR RELIGION IS FALSE AND DETRIMENTAL TO THEM AND HUMANITY AT LARGE, JUST THE SAME WAY YOU CAN'T TELL A WOMAN FOOLISHLY IN LOVE THAT HER MAN IS NOT GOOD FOR HER. WOMEN (MOST) THINK WITH THEIR HEARTS AND FEELINGS. 4 Likes |

Actually, in every setting, there must be a leader. Even among men, they are still those that overseers the affairs of how things should be .. That doesn't mean that the leaders are greater than those they lead.. It's just a way of creating a workable environment between the groups involved.. Orderliness is a very important feature in any setting.. In the case of man, woman & God's relationship, man & woman are equal, the yorubas & igbos are equal, the Efik & the Hausas are equal, the rich & poor are equal... But among these groups I listed, there must be a leader to create a harmonious & orderly environment... The role is more suitable to the male in terms of sense of leadership, assertiveness, courage & decision making should in case there is need for it... It's difficult to admit it, unless you're sincere to yourself, woman actually lack those qualities.. They can develop it with time, but in a man, it comes naturally... Hence, why male assumes the leadership role, not that they are more important than female before God.. I hope it helps... 4 Likes |

CAPSLOCKED:This is propaganda. This shows you don't even read your bible too well. Jesus condemned the killing of Mary Magdalene which was the law of the old testament ( Abraham's law) He came and abolished so many things of the old testament. Even, his coming alone was to liberate us from the shackles of those laws. Jewish religion and Christianity isn't the same please. And Paul wrote those things when he was writing to other churches after the death of Christ. I don't like long epistles, but please read your bible so well. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Thank you. 2 Likes |

highqueen: RELAX HIGHQUEEN. JESUS AND GOD ARE THE SAME PERSON, SO IF GOD DEMEANED WOMEN IN THE OT, THEN JESUS DID IT. JESUS KNEW ABOUT THE OT, AND NOT ONCE DID HE RULE OUT THE LAW, BUT INSTEAD.. HE APPROVED THE LAW. THEREBY APPROVING THE STONING AND RAPING OF YOUNG GIRLS. IT'S CLEAR THAT YOU'RE A FULL TIME CHRISTIAN AND YOU'VE ALREADY MADE UP YOUR MIND ON WHAT TO BELIEVE SO I SEE NO POINT TELLING YOU ANYTHING CUS ALL YOU WANT TO HEAR IS THAT YOUR MASTER JESUS IS LOVE, AND SHOULD BE FOLLOWED. I ASK YOU (AFTER YOU SEPARATED CHRISTIANITY FROM JUDAISM, AND TAGGED PAUL THE CRIMINAL) ARE YOU AWARE THAT PAUL THE CRIMINAL FOUNDED YOUR CHRISTIANITY AND JESUS WAS A JEW? IF JESUS NEVER SUPPORTED JEWISH LAWS WHY DIDN'T HE RULE ANYTHING OUT, BUT INSTEAD APPROVED IT. IT'S ALL IN YOUR BIBLE IF YOU READ. HERE, WE READ, THEN THINK. 5 Likes 1 Share |

funmisticqueen:Of course, there are women who have leadership skills because they learnt what it takes to be a good leader either directly from men or indirectly.. Courage, assertiveness, protection are leadership qualities that oozes naturally in a man.... The same cannot be said of a woman.. You want to experiment? When you go home, find two babies that are within five years or thereabout, try to lock them up in the same room, & careful watch there body language & reactions.. From there, pinpoint who among the genders was more courageous, was encouraging it partner that everything is safe & some other leadership qualities you know... When you have done that, I will appreciate if you can give me a sincere feedback... Forget all these online feminism shit, and just be on the look out of who is more likely to exude leadership qualities between the male & the female... 2 Likes |
