UnLoving NewbieIsaiah 19:16
"In that day, Egytians will be like women. They will shudder with fear at the uplifted hand that The Lord Almighty raises against them -
That's just the tip of the iceberg. Try reading the book of Timothy. You'll gag if you have any shred of respect for women.
-
You now just realized that?
The story of Lilith and Adam is sexist too. -
UnLoving NewbieWhat verse? ._.
-
Lilith, the first wife of Adam, who was cursed with vampirism for refusing to be subservient to her husband and protesting for equal rights. It was cut out of the bible.
And what verse in Timothy?
1 Timothy 2:12, "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence."
Basically it says women should shut up and listen to men. -
I don't know. But the story is about how she was created with Adam and refused to comply with Adam's demand that she submit herself, so she fled, and then Adam complained to god about being lonely, so he made Eve for Adam.

UnLoving Newbie@appa - I was talking to DOA but thanks I'm reading it right now
@DOA - oh ._. Well idk the story -
You do now.
I admire Lilith for standing up for women's rights way before her time. -
UnLoving NewbieWell it isn't in Genesis.
So like where do I even find it?? -
There is a story of "??" (I cannot remember her name) but Israel would not fight without her so SHE lead the Children of Israel to battle and they won because of it....

Congrats you have one story of a woman being pres-ganged in to leading an assault.
One skewed story does not make up for an entire book of hate. -
HA, she had a choice, in fact they pleaded her to lead them

True but you must admit that the bible is not the only one! Have you read the Islam's "holy book"? They are worse
-
@Appy, Nothing was cut from the Bible! (if you are reading the OLD JK versin that is) and the story of this woman and Adam is UNTRUE! It never happened!
Of BTW I have read both books of Timothy and it did not make me gag!
