Ever since Eve bit into an apple in the Garden of Eden, God has been rough on women.
Or, more precisely, the men who claim to speak on behalf of God have routinely disparaged women or discriminated against them.

Don’t you love it how atheists are always explaining the Bible to Christians.
thst’s a maga laugh-er, “atheists are always explaining the Bible to Christians.”
What? No quotes from the female-friendly Quran?
This guy again! He speaks for all women!
And you’re right about those churches. Meanwhile, islam - the fake religion - proceeds apace.
They forget that in forming the female human, God apparently deliberately left out one essential construction building block: the Y chromosome without which the female will never fully understand the male soul.
Given Eve’s role in the Garden of Eden it seems eminently fitting that women feminists should preside over the demise of Christianity in Western Civilization. They should be so proud that they have succeeded in finally destroying the patriarchy once and for all. I just can’t help but wonder how happy they will be with what will follow.
The rants and responses from the nonbelievers proves for any who have eyes to see and a mind to think, that a soul without God is by default, restless and discontent. For without the indwelling of Holy Spirit the only “god” is Ego...and Ego is a cruel, fearful and merciless master... as it churns like a tempest and offers no peace or contentment.

However the good news was that in traditional societies you breast fed kids for two to four years, so no periods. then you got pregnant again. The onset of puberty when I worked in Africa was 16.And often stopped at 40.
Most of the terrible laws he complains about, or Freepers complain about when Muslims do them, are based on societies where women are vulnerable because of pregnancy or breast feeding...not to mention death from war, famine, or disease. No welfare state, so you had to belong to a family.
I surmise they are talking about Athena or Isis in this article? There’s no such thing as “women clergy”. But, of course, there can be fake women clergy in an age where there are “male” mothers.
News flash: God has changed His gender and His pronoun: She.
Female clergy is a bad idea.
Oh, spare us! Please, no! It has been the ruination of the mainstream church.
Back in the 60s, half of everybody who when to Union was gay. I wouldn't use Union as a measuring stick.
