@John 6IX Breezy

So, maybe my last post ignored Breezy's question... which was, "could approach 1 lead rationally to the Golden Rule trumping other misogynistic verses in the Bible?" Assuming approach 1, the bottom up one... I think I could answer "yes."
There IS a line of logic that can be drawn from the bottom up approach to the rejection of misogyny.
But can I ask Neo and Breezy if they subscribe to this sort of reasoning? Do you guys think this is how the Bible OUGHT to be understood? Does the bottom up approach lead the two of you to reject the misogynistic verses (in your assessment)? I'm assuming the second greatest commandment "overrules" other commandments that conflict with it. Is that YOUR understanding?
