Is there a line you're not willing to cross for god?
Let's say, like Abraham, God came down and asked you to sacrifice your child? Would you do that for him? Or would you draw the line and say "no"
What lines are there? I mean it's easy to say that "Oh god wouldn't ask me to do that!" (He asked Abraham to do it, so I don't see why not). Would you do whatever God asked you to?
I'm sure the most common answer will be "Well, God wouldn't ask me to do something so terrible! So I'd know it wasn't god." To which I have to ask why Abraham did not think the same thing, and what therefore makes him credible in the least?

The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
