Women. Religion’s longestrunning victims.

You must not have understood my argument if this is what you respond with. I agreed that the mere difference in rules was not sufficient to suggest that one group is being oppressed. I said that the INTENTION needs to be examined to make a determination. So no, children are not less human or less valuable than their parents because the intention for such is not evident.

That settles the entire debate right there, as far as God is concerned, there is no value difference between males and females; a remarkable verse for a book of antiquity supposedly just written by misogynistic men.

That sir, is a mere claim. You cannot simply look at the claim and conclude that it is as what is claimed. The reality of the situation is much different. For example we have scriptures like this:

Deuteronomy 22:28-29 NIV Wrote:If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay her father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.

What we have here is a clear case of gross discrimination and oppression. A woman gets raped. That itself carries enough psychological trauma and needs no further discussion. But to add insult to injury, the woman is now bound to her rapist forever, an unimaginable sentence that speaks volumes of the plight of women in biblical times. This achieved in only two short verses. I'd also like to bring your attention to the fact that at no stage of this systematic oppression does the woman have a say in the matters concerning her life. Where is the supposed equality here? Instead what we find is an unilateral decision being made.

If you don't see this then I'm sorry but you are a fool and my words are wasted on you.Angry
8000 years before Jesus, the Egyptian god Horus said, "I am the way, the truth, the life."
