Hi guys,
I want to discuss the equality issue form a biblical prespective. I think this is an easier topic to debate. So here we go
lets start from birth
"Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean." (Leviticus 12:2)
OKay so for a Male Child , His mother would be unclean for 7 days
what about if she gets a girl?
"But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days." (Leviticus 12:5)
Oh now if she gives birth to a female child, she is unclean for 14 Days.
Hence a female birth would defile her mother twice as much as for a boy.
That is biblical equality for you at birth. Boys and Girls when they are infant have not much difference between them, Both scientificallly are closer to being a female than a male, It is later on that one develops into male and the other into a female according to their genetic make up (XY versus XX)
Ok so no equality since birth.
But are they equal if they are adults?
"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)
So women are seen as slaves for men. Man is the head of the woman just as much as Christ is the head of every man..
But that is not all , a woman is not only inferior to a man but she should also suffer great pains during child birth by the order of a "So called Loving GOD"
Here we read :
"I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband,and he will rule over you."
So The Loving God Jesus, the God Of the bible, will increase her pain at giving birth " Greatly".
I mean that is Jesus Love for women , and Biblical Equality right there.
Not only that, but the bible blaims all sins on women
"And a man will choose...any wickedness, but the wickedness of a woman...Sin began with a woman and thanks to her we all must die" Ecclesiasticus, 25:18, 19 & 33.
"And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her." Ecclesiastes 7:26, from the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament)
But lets see , at worship in the church what must a woman do?
1 Corinthians 14:34-35: "...women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says, If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church."
Women should remain silent, Like a wooden Chair in church!!
What do you think? You think this is fair?
