Description Feminism is based in arrogance, and it's often used as contradiction argument against God's Word.
My broooooooooos.....c'mon vwv

The actions of the modern, militant feminists are geared to cause women to rise up and rebel against the order that God has given to mankind. That brand of feminism seeks to impose humanistic solutions that are in direct opposition to the Word of God. Feminism was originally a positive movement, focused on giving women the basic rights God intends for every human being to have. Tragically, feminism has gone past those roots to focus on destroying any trace of a distinction in roles between men and women.

Eve believed the lie that eating the fruit would bring her wisdom. She lusted and she took or arrogated to herself something that was forbidden. This is the basis for the feminist movement. Women have bought into the lie that feminism will bring them what they want, what they think that they "deserve." However, the promise is empty for the premise is based in pride and pride goes before a fall. "Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall" (Proverbs 16:18).

I’ve heard a lot of people say things like this:

The Bible Condones Rape on Women, forcing them to marry their rapist! Deuteronomy 22:28-29!!!1!!!

It’s funny how people use this verse and they automatically say that it’s dishonoring to the woman. Let try reading the last few verses shall we? We might find something important here:
" But if out in the country a man happens to meet a young woman pledged to be married and rapes her, only the man who has done this shall die. Do nothing to the woman; she has committed no sin deserving death. This case is like that of someone who attacks and murders a neighbor, for the man found the young woman out in the country, and though the betrothed woman screamed, there was no one to rescue her."

What mercy on the woman!

Now, Deuteronomy 22:28-29 talks about a man who had just raped a single virgin woman against her will, and he gets caught in the act. Back then in those times, being a virgin was regarded as a great virtue and most sought trait in a woman when it came to marriage. Getting married was something that every woman craved: having a man in your life meant you were able to survive with more money coming in to put bread and water on the table, and so forth. When you take away a woman's virginity and not marry her, it basically made her chances very very slim. So as punishment for taking a woman's most virtuous possession, he was to marry her and support her as his wife, as well as take care of the child should he have impregnated her. This way, the woman is made sure that she is taken care of regardless of her loss and pain, and the man is paying the consequence for committing a crime.


“God doesn’t consider man and women to be treated equally! 1 Corinthians 11:8!!1!!!

That verse is not talking about equality but of gender roles. This does not elevate man nor degrade woman. It simply teaches that God has a unique role to fulfill for each gender. This is the traditional complementarian view. Complementarianism, however, is not chauvinism.
God does not play favoritism when it comes to equallity : ( ) &
Galatians 3:28 "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."



“Women are not allowed to speak their minds, so they must not have rights or honor!! 1 Corinthians 14:34-35!!!1!!!”

The context of 1 Corinthians 14:33-35 is talking about interpreting and understanding the gifts of tongues and prophecy (1 Corinthians 14:26-32). Therefore, 1 Corinthians 14:34 is not commanding women to be absolutely silent in the church all the time. It is only saying that women should not participate when tongues and/or prophecy is being interpreted and tested (1 Thessalonians 5:19-22; 1 John 4:1). This is in agreement with 1 Timothy 2:11-12 which says that women should not teach or have authority over men. If women were involved in deciding whether a prophecy was truly from God, they would be disobeying what the Bible says in 1 Timothy 2:11-12. Therefore, Paul tells women to be silent when tongues and prophecy are being interpreted so that they will not be disobeying God’s Word. This doesn't bring up other matters such as leadership or participation in anything else.

Women participated in temple worship (Ezra 2:65).

Women acted as capable leaders when necessary (Judges 5:1-9).

Virtuous women are honored by God and their families (Proverbs 31:10-31). Take a look at that oppressive scripture!

“Women’s purpose in God’s eyes are to only serve man and submit to their husbands! Ephesians 5:22-24 & Romans 7:2!!! 1!!!!”

Again, it's funny how that is pulled out of context, because if you read on from the verse and even after the verse, you would see that submission is a two-way street:

Ephesians 5: 21-30
"Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 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. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing[n] her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church—for we are members of his body.

Submission is a position of honor and completeness. When a wife is loved as the church is loved by Christ, submission is not difficult. Ephesians 5:24 says, “Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.” This verse is saying that the wife is to submit to her husband in everything that is right and lawful. Therefore, the wife is under no obligation to disobey the law or God in the name of submission.
A wife should submit to her husband, not because women are inferior, but because that is how God designed the marital relationship to function. Submission is not a wife’s being a “doormat” for her husband. Rather, with the help of the Holy Spirit, a wife submits to her husband, and a husband sacrificially loves his wife.

The bible states clearly that wives are not to submit to their husbands when their husbands are demanding something outside of God’s will. Titus 2:5explains this further in that wives are “to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.”
Those who advocate the unscriptural practice of spanking their wives and call it “Christian” discipline are most certainly maligning the word of God, and wives have more than enough justification to refuse to participate in something so demeaning, unloving and controlling.

As Christians, we understand the dynamics at work which are totally at odds with human viewpoints and worldly “wisdom.” This word, "submit" can cause great offense when there should be none at all. Women need to be treated with understanding and respect. A husband shows his love for his wife by putting her first, and a woman shows her love by putting him first as well. A woman who resists this loving care with her husband is robbing herself of the joys of being a godly wife.

"God thinks that having sex with a woman on her period is considered unclean, and that everything a women touches while on her period is unclean! Leviticus 5: 19-27!!1!!!!"
It is important to remember the purpose of the Old Testament laws concerning blood. In the sacrificial system, blood was sacred (Leviticus 17:11). A woman’s “uncleanness” during her period was symbolic of the value placed on blood. As a result, contact with a woman who was having her period was forbidden.
Off of religious terms, there was a VERY high need of hygienic practice in the desert. Especially when it came to sex. Many medical experts will tell you how important this would be.

Christians today are not under the Old Testament ceremonial law (Romans 10:4; Galatians 3:24-26; Ephesians 2:15). There no longer is a sacrificial system because Jesus’ blood sacrifice paid the penalty for sins once and for all. The Levitical ceremonial laws do not apply today. There is no biblical reason why a married couple cannot have sex during the wife’s period. Some doctors do not recommend it from a medical perspective, but there are no proven “dangers” of having sexual intercourse during a woman’s period. Usually women have no desire to have sexual relations during their period, so that is definitely another thing to consider. Basically, this issue must be decided by a husband and wife in the spirit of “mutual consent”.

Do not be confused in mistaking Man’s actions for God’s actions. The Bible describes culture such a Rome treating women no more than property, but that does not mean God approves of that action.
The Bible records all kinds of sin: slavery and bondage and the failures of its greatest heroes.
The charge of sexism in the Bible is based upon a lack of knowledge of Scripture.
It is also very important to understand that the Bible’s ascribing different roles to men and women does not constitute sexism. The Bible makes it abundantly clear that God expects men to take the leadership role in the church and the home.
Does this make women inferior? Absolutely not.
Does this mean women are less intelligent, less capable, or viewed as less in God’s eyes?
Absolutely not!
What it means is that in our sin-stained world, there has to be structure and authority. God has instituted the roles of authority for our good. Sexism is the abuse of these roles, not the existence of these roles.

If there is anything I am missing, I will include it here!!!!

Other Stamps For You!:


EDIT: LOL, guys, I am not saying I'm anti-feminist. I'm saying that I don't approve of feminism when it's ONLY based on arrogance and unsatisfactions, which women HAVE been doing since the beginning of the 90's I think, while trying to attack the Bible and not look into the study.

"...I'm just trying to get a better understanding of this religion."

Believe you me I've been trying for years, nothing will help you understand it because none of it makes any sense from a rational standpoint. Unless you're indoctrinated or desperate for something to believe in there's no way to understand it. That aside there are so many sects and interpretations of Christianity that trying to wrap your head around it might make your head explode. Oh, and this woman will suck any apologists dick just to avoid admitting how bigoted, sexist and downright closed-minded her beliefs are. She has no interest in confronting the flaws in her logic or the heinousness of her own religion. She just wants to pretend sexism isn't sexist if the bible says so.

There *are* so many sects, I get confused often. I try to understand it as a whole and the sects but I hardly ever get a straight forward answer.

"She just wants to pretend sexism isn't sexist if the bible says so." What an excellent example of the common stereotypical Christian.

It is wonderful (well skim read) to read a well thought and well reasoned defense of the Bible on women.

I once read that "feminism is the radical notion the women are people" (Cheris Kramarae/ Paula Treichier), and the Bible fully supports this notion.

Men were made from the dust of the ground, and women were made of finer things.

"The woman was made of a rib out of the side of Adam; not made out of his head to rule over him, nor out of his feet to be trampled upon by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected, and near his heart to be beloved.” Matthew Henry.

I hate this "God hates women" arguement stupid, men wrote the bible, so therefore it suits them to make women seem weaker. If God did think women were weak, why do they give birth?! Possibly the most painful think in this world physically. And why does everything start off female?

So they sent twelve thousand warriors to Jabesh-gilead with orders to kill everyone there, including women and children. "This is what you are to do," they said. "Completely destroy all the males and every woman who is not a virgin." Among the residents of Jabesh-gilead they found four hundred young virgins who had never slept with a man, and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh in the land of Canaan.

They attacked Midian just as the LORD had commanded Moses, and they killed all the men. All five of the Midianite kings – Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba – died in the battle. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword. Then the Israelite army captured the Midianite women and children and seized their cattle and flocks and all their wealth as plunder. They burned all the towns and villages where the Midianites had lived. After they had gathered the plunder and captives, both people and animals, they brought them all to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and to the whole community of Israel, which was camped on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan River, across from Jericho.

As you approach a town to attack it, first offer its people terms for peace. If they accept your terms and open the gates to you, then all the people inside will serve you in forced labor. But if they refuse to make peace and prepare to fight, you must attack the town. When the LORD your God hands it over to you, kill every man in the town. But you may keep for yourselves all the women, children, livestock, and other plunder. You may enjoy the spoils of your enemies that the LORD your God has given you.

Suppose you hear in one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you that some worthless rabble among you have led their fellow citizens astray by encouraging them to worship foreign gods. In such cases, you must examine the facts carefully. If you find it is true and can prove that such a detestable act has occurred among you, you must attack that town and completely destroy all its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock. Then you must pile all the plunder in the middle of the street and burn it. Put the entire town to the torch as a burnt offering to the LORD your God. That town must remain a ruin forever; it may never be rebuilt. Keep none of the plunder that has been set apart for destruction. Then the LORD will turn from his fierce anger and be merciful to you. He will have compassion on you and make you a great nation, just as he solemnly promised your ancestors. "The LORD your God will be merciful only if you obey him and keep all the commands I am giving you today, doing what is pleasing to him." (Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)

You should know that the context of that passage is a WARNING AGAINST IDOLATRY.

WOW, I think you added alot of false information and words into that, because here is what it actually says in the NLT Holy Bible:

"that scoundrels among you are leading their fellow citizens astray by saying, ‘Let us go worship other gods’ - gods you have not known before. In such cases, you must examine the facts carefully. If you find that the report is true and such a detestable act has been committed among you, you must attack that town and completely destroy all its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock. Then you must pile all the plunder in the middle of the open square and burn it. Burn the entire town as a burnt offering to the Lord your God. That town must remain a ruin forever; it may never be rebuilt. Keep none of the plunder that has been set apart for destruction. Then the Lord will turn from his fierce anger and be merciful to you. He will have compassion on you and make you a large nation, just as he swore to your ancestors.

The Lord your God will be merciful only if you listen to his voice and keep all his commands that I am giving you today, doing what pleases him." (Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)


- He gave them all those who have sinned a chance to repent, so they wouldn't have to be punished so harshly. He even told his followers to carefully examine what is happening before taking action. The people had a chance, and studies show that God gave them plenty of just time and reason for it.
- The whole reason for the acts was to remind those who the real God is, the living God and not a piece of wood or copper.
- Children will be saved, since they have no ability to make the rational choice of whether or not to accept God
- He never once said that they had to rape the women
- This passage has no special meaning towards women, so I have no clue what you are doing with a passage like that in the woman's case.

Yeah, so far, you have shown me no evidence for that.

These are exact bible quotes. What else do you want?

God is a murdering anti-life cunt sore. The fact that it warns against idolatry means that God is so jealous and insecure that he's willing to murder a while town because one man or woman is a heathen. God is advocating the holocaust because one man worships an idol.

Al Capone was the same way, "Pay me or die" And I'm sure that Al Capone rewarded those who served him and jumped when he snapped his fingers.

Alright, God orders you to reserach carefully to find out if someone is a heathen, then brutally murder them and all their family.

To be honest, God seems like a brutal guy, and pray tell, why would God want to slaughter all the women, men and children except virgin girls of breeding age?

Well, you got it from somewhere else, because I'm looking at it right now, and it doesn't say all that in my Bible. With that said, you are not going to convince me or anyone else who has read the Bible that that wall of text is an actual NLT bible verse.

Actually, it's not that at all. It's that He doesn't take crap from ANYONE and he doesn't play favorites. It's like running a kingdom, which is what the context is talking about: If you are in God's domain and you disobey His commands, then you have to be disciplined for it unless you repent and turn away from it. What's so wrong about that? And besides, God doesn't need money or fame or wealth, He just wants respect because He, of all things, DOES deserve that. You can find that in many parts of the Bible, especially with Jesus.

Well, of course, it's just like the justice system today with judges and lawyers. The only difference is that shedding blood was considered a more disciplinary act of judgement, since Jesus had not come to die in place for their sins yet.

Where does it say all that again? And no false verses, please.

I just gave you a bunch of bible quotes and all you can say is that they're not really part of the bible? I really have won this argument.

God theoretically omnipotent, who would give him crap if he existed? The Jewish people are explicitly listed as the chosen people, and God regularly commands them to commit genocide and orders those who cut their hair to be punished by death.

(Deuteronomy 21:10-14 NAB)

"When you go out to war against your enemies and the LORD, your God, delivers them into your hand, so that you take captives, if you see a comely woman among the captives and become so enamored of her that you wish to have her as wife, you may take her home to your house. But before she may live there, she must shave her head and pare her nails and lay aside her captive's garb. After she has mourned her father and mother for a full month, you may have relations with her, and you shall be her husband and she shall be your wife. However, if later on you lose your liking for her, you shall give her her freedom, if she wishes it; but you shall not sell her or enslave her, since she was married to you under compulsion."

Once again God approves of forcible rape.

First of all, no, you did not give me "a bunch of bible quotes", you gave me only one NLT bible quote. An inaccurate and altered so-called "bible verse", at that, not even in the NLT bible. Therefore it is not valid of the argument since it is clearly biased to your points.
On the contrary, the fact that you bothered to make a reply implies that you haven't won anything.

Apparently people will and do care, it's very clear that some people have intense views on it: some don't like the idea of someone to be all-knowing of their actions and thoughts and intentions("violation of privacy" they say), and other's see it as proof of divinity attributes, something that is not human nor coming from nature.

Look at you jump from one topic to another, lol. How about we stick to the subject at hand, huh? You said something about rape, right?

That's alot better, an actual bible verse

This is ancient standard Jewish practice that was done among the nation during warfare against non-Canaanite nations -- if a man wishes to become married to a prisoner woman of another nation, do so if she wishes not for her freedom (ability to say no and she wishes to not be in threat of being inside inproper settings). Notice that he didn't ORDER them to have sex with the women when they were not married to them or against their will. Also it's not a requirement nor and order for them to do this at all. However, a woman would most likely be living under conditions more favorable if they DID choose to marry her. Also, if they find that they do not wish to be married any longer, or if she is in fact mistreated or enslaved, the woman is free to leave and the husband must not treat her like she is still his.
This does not indicate in anyway the approval or practice of a woman being mistreated into having sex against her will.

Okay, I had a friend who was disagreeing with the bible (who always says she's a Christian but she says that because she was raised Christian. She isn't living like one). She was telling me and my friends about what the bible says about having sex with women on their period. In her words, she said, "The bible says that women who are on their periods are evil and should be avoided". She was taking it out of proportions. I had never heard of this in the bible and was confused. Thank you for explaining that because I didn't know what to tell her. Just shows how much people quote and interpret the bible falsely and how we should be there to show them the way that God is trying to get us to follow.

I.e, it says that God tells us to kill whoever curses upon their mother or father, therefore we should kill half of the Earth's population?
No.
Because you know what else the Bible says?
He who is without sin throw the first stone.

Exactly; the bible is self-contradicting. Every time you turn the page and learn a new lesson it makes you think.. You were just taught the opposite in the last chapter, so what do you do? "An eye for an eye" or "turn the other cheek?" Should we stone to deaths adulterers? Should women who were raped be the property of the rapist? Should a woman who marries after losing her virginity be stoned to death?

It might be, but that's what makes it so mysterious and wonderful.
In a way, isn't kind of giving you freedom to choose?
I'm assuming you're of a different religion, or just an atheist and I respect your opinion, although I may not agree with them.

I respect yours as well, but it's healthy to question your beliefs now and again. If God were real, I wouldn't want him being "mysterious," I'd want him taking care of me. Why else would I worship him if he didn't care for me somehow? If he's willing to let me go to hell so he can be "mysterious," he's an evil God.

It never mentioned that he didn't care, just that he was very vague.
I agree with you about the Hell part though, however, I don't believe that's how God is at all.
God has a plan for every one of us.
How we carry out that plan is up to us.

Uh..what? He has a plan for us, but we choose whether we follow it? So what's stronger, his plan or our free will? The two really can't coexist. It's either planned out or it's not.

Thanks <3
oh HELL no, as far as I know, there is nothing in the Bible that says or even remotely supports the idea that you will go to hell simply because you are a certain gender.

Most women experience an increased sex drive near and during the time of their menstrual cycle, just so you know. And yes, the bible does imply that women are property. During that time, yes, they were. There's no way around that.

This stamp actually makes me think I might be a militant radical feminist. I'm a Christian and I find all of those scripture quotes extremely offensive and degrading to women. You don't have to submit to a man to be loved by God. You don't have to stay silent and out of any theological discussion because you're a woman. "What mercy on the woman!" my foot. She was raped and God did not blame her for being raped. WHOOPDEE DOO! I'd never respect Him if He did! She still does not have to marry her attacker.
