Friendly Atheist - Another Reason for Women to Leave Christianity
September 13, 2011 at 10:56 am
Because it gives men with penis-insecurities grounds for saying bullshit like this:

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyath...ian-faith/

Quick example:

Quote:This doesn’t mean you can’t learn from a woman, or that she is incompetent and can’t think. It means that there is a certain dynamic between maleness and femaleness that when a woman begins to assume an authoritative teaching role in your life the manhood of a man and the womanhood of a woman is compromised.

To paraphrase a point I made about femininity I made earlier today, (coincidentally) I am a woman because I have a va-jay-jay...not because I accept a pre-defined role according to the make-believe character of an archaic book of iron-age fairy tales as interpreted by men so caught up in penis envy that they have to use that book in place of real confidence.

Of course.....that is not our fault, either.

What do you expect from a religion that blames all of the world's problems on temptation from a woman?

So whats the problem here. Did someone not show compassion or mercy for the opposite sex or do you want a penis?
How about you take the strongest female and we'll get the strongest male, then let them fight and see who the dominant one is.
Lets get the smartest of the two and see who's smarter.
Lets get goin on that research to see if you are just a women because you have a va-jay jay or that there seems to be a significant difference and we just keep you around because your purrty(probably best reason).
