Good one

That's why I always say... Women should fight for equity and never equality.
equality and equity ! Equity because all fingers are not equal - equality because men and women must be equal !

They have given you food, all this aethiest always looking for ways to show their hate for Christianity, as a Matter of fact most of the are anti- Christian!
That's right. I am anti-Christianity, because Christianity is stupidity. And anything stupid is dangerous. Which sane person won't be against stupidity, except the mad and stupid?

Although, we're very much safe to a certain degree, because most Christians are HYPOCRITES, and only profess a false and empty faith, since they do not follow the cretinous injuctions of their morönic religion.

Yet, hyprocrisy itself is a vice that makes you contemptible.

As for the OP, you can be a Christian and a feminist, because Christianity is pretty much hypocrisy, as most of its adherent portray!

If you can commit fornication, adultery, and go to clubs at night to drink yourself to stupor, like most Nigerians do, and still hilariously-irritatingly refer to yourself as Christians, from where do you draw the legitimacy to say feminists can't be Christians too? Don't be a fool. You are all the same HYPOCRITES. Own up to it already, clowns.

Love is not enough or sufficient in a marriage. Trust, infact is number one criteria or value for a successful marriage. Then comes patience, compromise, understanding and tolerance. Love is the least of them all, but get to be placed first. Little wonder, marriages crumble.

agape love is sufficient

Please people stop picking just a part of the Bible,read it as a whole. So what did God do to men here? Turn them to sacrificial lamp?

Ephesians 5:22-33 New International Version (NIV)
22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing[a] her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— 30 for we are members of his body.
Thank you for putting it up.

Say it as it is stop twisting it. Men and women are not equal. Hence equity should be sought.

Submission is also a role husbands should play.
Yes. The husband needs to also submit to his wife. If you want to examine biblical laws rationally you cannot have a home where the woman alone submits and the man alone loves.



If you have a marriage where only the husband shows love to his wife because the Bible said men should love their wives then it means the wife is not under any obligation to show concern or love for him. She can practically see him as a roommate and she won't be wrong after all the Bible didn't say wives show love.

So therefore husband should also submit to wife just as wife should also show love.

Yes, the writer is absolutely right, infact it's even more worse in Islam, where women are just objects.

But do I believe the Bible? No
Because it's full of contradictions, baseless and senseless stories..

Do I believe in men and women equality? Yes
But in the family, the husband is the head of the home and wife the helper. It doesn't make the woman a less human 9r inferior to the husband. They only have separate roles

Hey! Don't say what you don't really have knowledge about here that" it's even more worse in Islam and where women are objects.

Let me educates you a bit. Which country is the most populous Muslim Country? It's Indonesia, Population of the Muslims there is 98%. They don't use any constitution aside the God's constitution for makind which has stated in the QUR'AN and popularly known as SHARIA.

MIND YOU INDONESIA HAVE ALREADY ELECTED WOMEN AS THEIR PRESIDENT/PRIME MINISTER IN TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND THEIR ADMINISTRATIONS WERE SUPERB. Just because their constitution which is Sharia allows, treats and respect the women as well as Men in their country.

As you claimed that "Islam treats women as objects". If your claim was to be truth, this wouldn't have possible to choose object as their President in two different occasions.

Has Almighty United State of America elected a female President ever? Nope Not to talk of my darling Nigeria.

Islam portrayed women as helper and unique homo sapien but it's some bad eggs among Muslims that treat them like trash. Those Muslims who doing so are doing this because they are bad themselves but it's not Islam that tell them to do so.
It's the Media that even more worsen the situation with their lies and deceit to protray Islam as a Religion which belittle or treat women like objects

Though I like your assertion in the last paragraph of your comment and that's the position of women too in Islam.
Everybody are equal before God Almighty but HE has ordained Man to be the Head for Woman but that doesn't mean Man should turns them to slaves or objects

Peace be on to you.

According to this Nigerian man on twitter, the bible upon which Christianity is built is filled with sexism therefore it is not possible to be a Christian and a feminist.

Read his tweets below;
"Can one be a Christian and a feminist? Where does Christianity stand with feminism? A THREAD.

First of all, what is feminism?
the advocacy of women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes. Where does the Bible stand with this?

For a book that is supposed to be about love and tolerance, the Bible contains an incredible amount of sexism. It makes repeated reference to how women should be subjugated to men and are not entitled to equal rights.

The sexism begins at the very beginning of the Bible where man is crated first (the implication being as he’s more important). Woman on the other hand is created from a small part of man’s body (his rib) as “a help” for man (Genesis 2:18).

It only gets worse. Women are not to have any influence; in fact it is preferable that they do not even speak. 1stCorinthians (14:34-5) says.....

Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak: but to be under obedience, as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame to speak in the church.”

Colossians 3:18 also declares “Wives, submit yourselves unto your husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.” So hear that ladies, God is telling you to do everything your husband tells you.

it is an “abomination” (Deuteronomy 22:5) for a woman to wear clothes that men wear (trousers for example). Then there is Leviticus 27:3-7 which declares women are not equal to men. In fact they are only three-fifths the value of men.

So are you a Christian woman and a feminist? Where does your true loyalty lie? Because I'm honestly tired of people pretending to be feminists only to come here and argue who should be turning eba and washing plates."

Is there anywhere in the Bible that states men and women are not equal?

Read your new testament. Use message translation for better understanding.

Peace be on to you.

We are talking about what the Quran and Bible says and not what countries are doing.
There's a big difrence between religion and government.

Do I think Indonesia empowering women a good thing? Yes
Is Indonesia the only Muslim country, not empowering women? No (Iran just allow driving for women less than 2yrs ago).

Even Brazil, Liberia has elected a women president too, does that now translates to upholding biblical values?

Most of the religious folks are not actually practicing what's inside the books.
Ordinarily there should not be any relationship between Christians and Muslims the way Quran cursed jews and even said God will destroy them.

I expect you to show men where in the Quran that women should be empowered or that doesn't threats them as slaves/objects not Indonesia, as it doesn't make any sense
