This one is for you, ladies. You
know all those years you have struggled to become equal in the world.
Voting, wages, and so on... well, you were going against God's word. So
if you are Christian, and believe in the Bible, either get out of the
church or become slave to men. It's the will of God.
Women are dumped on throughout the
Bible, and are still being dumped on in the churches. How many
denominations allow women to be clergy? If they are clergy, they still
aren't equal to the men in the clergy. And it is supported 100% in the
Bible.
It starts in the second account of
creation... women were only created because Adam could not find a suitable
wife (help meet) in the animals that God showed him. On top of being
second string to cattle and sheep, women were created from a spare rib of
a man. Woman needed man in order to exist. (Genesis 2:20-22)
When Adam and Eve ate the forbidden
fruit of knowledge of Good and Evil... Who got the harshest of
punishment? Eve! Adam's punishment was that his herbs would sprout
thorns and he would get to rule over Eve, is that really a punishment?
Then Eve got pain in childbirth, pain in conception... and became a
servant of sorts to Adam. Not to mention the official punishment for Adam
was for listening to his wife. (Genesis 3:16-17)
Even in the ten commandments women
are portrayed as being the property of their husband. In Exodus
20:17 it says "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou
shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his
maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy
neighbour's." Yes sir, the wife ranks right there with the ox and ass.
That's not all. Exodus
21:7-10 covers the rules of selling your daughter, her master
making her marry him, and then her role if he wants more wives. I see the
woman's view and feelings mattered quite a bit here.
Exodus 22:16-17 is a
real good one. If a man sleeps with an unwed virgin, he must marry her.
But if her father refuses to give her to the man, then the man must pay
the "pay money according to the dowry of virgins"... is this crazy or
what? I can see it now...
Man: Hi sir, I just shtooked your
virgin daughter, and now must marry her.
Father: There is no way my little
girl is marrying you, punk!
Man: Okay, well then here's the $5
I have to give you then.
Father: YAY!!!
It's not just women, female animals
are not as good as male animals. It is male animals that are to be burned
for offerings. (Leviticus 1:3, 1:10) When a king sins, and
needs to make a sacrifice he has to use a male goat, but when any old
commoner sins, they have to use a female goat. (Leviticus 4:23, 4:28)
Now back to the abuse of human
females. This biased view isn't limited to adult women. Little girls,
even from the day that they are born, are inferior to little boys. All of
Leviticus chapter 12 is based on the purification of a woman
after she has given birth. Get this... after a woman has given birth to
a boy, she will be unclean for 7 days and must purify herself for 33
days. If she gives birth to a girl, she is unclean for 14 days and needs
66 days of purification. Go figure.
Leviticus also touches on the
treatment of female slaves and their male masters. According to
Leviticus 19:20-22, if a man rapes his female slave... the woman
gets punished and the man's sins are forgiven. Look for yourself, it's
rather shameful.
Women are even worth less in terms
of their monetary value. Here's a table of values as given by God in
Leviticus 27:3-7. $ = Shekels of silver
Ages 1 month - 5 years: Male = $5;
Female = $3
Ages 5 years - 20 years: Male =
$20; Female = $10
Ages 20 years - 60 years: Male =
$50; Female = $30
Ages 60 and up: Male = $15; Female
= $10
In Deuteronomy 22:28-29
it says that if a man rapes a virgin, he must marry her and also pay her
father 50 shekels for humbling her. How wild is that, do you think that
would fly today?
1 Samuel 18:25-27 may
just be one of the most disgusting things ever written. Saul sells his
daughter to David. But he didn't want money, noooooo, that would be too
normal... he wanted 100 foreskins from Philistine men. David gave him 200
foreskins. What the hell is with foreskins? Couldn't he get ears? Or
how about fingers? This is disgusting. And women certainly be offended
that one of their kind was traded for 200 bits of severed penises.
Women are below men in the pecking
order again in 1 Corinthians 11:3-9 where it is made crystal
clear that God over Christ, Christ is over man, and man is over woman.
After all man was not created for woman, but woman was created for man.
Women are not allowed to talk in
church, in fact the idea of them speaking in church is shameful. This is
made very clear in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35. Women are to
remain silent, and if they have any questions they are to ask their
husbands at home after church.
Not only are women inferior to men,
but they should treat their husbands as they treat God. Check this quote
out from Ephesians 5:22-24 "wives, submit yourselves unto
your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the
wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of
the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the
wives be to their own husbands in every thing."
1 Timothy chapter 2 is
another chapter that is dedicated to saying women are below men, and also
says women are to dress plainly. But let's take a harder look at where
women stand in this chapter. It says that women are to learn in silence
without subjection... they cannot teach nor "usurp authority over the
man". It also makes it clear that Adam was first, then Eve. And the
Garden of Eden thing, with the forbidden fruit... well that was 100%
Eve's fault. Women are gullible, yet conniving.
It amazes me that there is a women,
who could read the teachings of the Holy Bible, and call herself a
Christian. How many Christian men are using these teachings to justify
abuse? It's sickening.
