How can women be Christian?

People are really good at pretending their religious text doesn't say what it says.

Indoctrination and fear. These are the two main methods by which religion survives, and they condition people to follow and not think too much. And violence, when the secular laws aren't there to overrule God.

It's become more and more clear to me that a significant number of Christians have never read their bible front to back. That is so bizarre to me. They will take Pastor Bumrush's word for "the gist". Even their description of Jesus is horribly innacurate.

When I as an atheist ironically educate them about their own bible, it becomes clear they don't actually care what it says. They only care about what they like to think it says.
