Why Do Women Follow The Bible? by Mudley313: 1:42am On Apr 24, 2010
Why does any woman place her faith in the bible, its obvious god dislikes women and thinks of them as slaves and intimacy objects and nothing more.


"And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.
If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.
And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.
And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money." EX 21:7-11
God wants us to sell our daughters as slaves to pay our debts (Resolution for naija's debt maybe? It would work). And also women who are slaves dont get to leave after 6 years like men do.

"And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
If her father utterly refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins." EX 22:16-17
So a woman who is not engaged or set to be married must marry her seducer? Man what happened to free will.

Leviticus 27:3-7 - We are more valuable than women! If you are ever about to be killed, simply offer your wife or girlfriend or female family member, we are much more valuable to God, he even says so.

Numbers 5:12-31- If you think your lady is cheating, you are supposed to make her drink holy water and dirt mixed as a test!!! Sorry Ladies I havent seen anywhere that god has a special drink to test us out.

NU 31:18, 35, JG 21:12 - Female virgins should be awarded for those victorious in war. Not just virgins but young virgins!!!! pe.dophiles get your Army registration done now!!!!!!

If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found;
Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days. DT 22:28-29
Wow! It gets worst for women, now gods saying if your a virgin and a man despoils you, as long as he is found and pays your pops a little money, you have to wife him.

DT 25:5-10 Ladies if you're widowed, your brother in law has an obligation to reproduce with you. You have to let us, it is gods word.

PR 31:10-31 - The able wife is to bring only profit and no loss, rise before dawn, buy land prudently, plant a vineyard with her earnings, keep her lamp burning all night, gird herself to work, be generous to the poor, lend a hand to the forlorn, talk shrewd sense, offer kindly counsel, and never be idle.

1CO 11:3-10 - If your a female and pray you need to wrap your entire head in a blanket or towel, why? Cause god says a woman has to keep her head covered while praying.

"Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded 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 for women to speak in the church." 1CO 14:34-35
Gods telling you women, dont talk in Church, dont ask questions to anyone, sit still and shut up. If you have something you need to say, tell your husband when you get home. If you do tell him something he better already know though, cause God doesnt allow you to be smarter than us.

1TI 2:12 - If you are a female, and you are a teacher, God doesnt like you. Women are not to be anything which shows power over men.

1TI 2:9, 1PE 3:3 - If your a female, and you braid your hair, wear gold or pearls, or any other costly attire your f.ucked up. God doesnt like that either.

Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. Gen. 3:16
Makes all women suffer extreme pain during birth.

GE 3:16, CO 11:3-9, EP 5:22-24, CN 3:18, TS 2:5, 1PE 3:1-6, Says women are subjects to their husbands even if the man doesnt obey god, it says men should always rule over women, and that women were specifically created just for men.



So I mean how can yall follow this thing? Im sure there is a ton more in the testaments that show Gods sexist side if yall know any throw em up.

Because we actually know how to properly interpret the Bible rather than read it in english without the cultural understandings of that time.

Please do yourself a favour first of all find out what the Bible really is and what the purpose of each book is, then take a study of hebrew, greek, and aramaic. Study the times these books were written. Study the purpose of their writing, then come back and tell me if you will come to the same conclusion.

I have always wondered myself. Here is a religion from a time and culture that despises women and here they are still clinging on to it for dear life. Wonders shall never end. Absolutely amazing phenomenon. It is like a woman clinging on to a strange man who has just brutally despoiled her, for dear life. Absolutely putrid, IMO.

All women belonging to all the three patriarchial desert dogmas are supposed to be atheists by now if they really have any shred of self-pride left in them.

we all know what the bible is about. You are the one who has to accept that words on a page, no matter what language, mean exactly what they say. In an attempt to justify the unjustifiable, you read between the lines and make up meanings. the bible is anti-woman. there is enough material therein for it to be obvious.

nor mind them. when confronted wit the realities of what their holy book says, its always one excuse or the other. either it was not translated properly or u need sum holy spirit to understand, even when the evidence is there koro-koro stairing at them right in the face.

mr. yahweh (n his ancient jewish followers dat created him in their own image) is a mysoginist god to the core. . .like his arab counterpart, mr. allah
