im just not interested in dating christian men, because female submission is definitely mentioned THROUGHOUT the bible. i dont want to "submit". therefore me and a christian man would be incompatible. AND i gave sources😭 not sure why im being downvoted for speaking the truth

MANY churches do not want women leading dude. so i give multiple direct sources, and you just rationalize them or discard them. im not interested in any religion that doesnt put men and women at an equal playing field. again, nothing im saying is factually incorrect.

Yes you literally have too, and it’s not pick and choose, you have to give meaning to things because it won’t make sense bc language norms where different at creation and different at translation and other translation and other translation, it’s also known that King James Bible is known for changing words. It’s all what you believe and I know most Christians would probably agree, it’s abt just being a good person.

I can justify yes, direct translation it holds merit. But that isn’t what happens in churches or modern Christianity, it is what is perceived due to the translations and changing of words throughout the bibles history, therefore, I disagree, because those verses aren’t values held by modern Christians.

i understand that. but can u see how that can sound like cherry picking? EVERY christian can have their OWN interpretation of the bible, every denomination, every church, etc etc etc... do u see how that can be difficult to pin down? so instead of referring to millions of anecdotes, i looked directly at the source material that their faith is based on, which we can both refer to. based off of the source material alone, im sure we can agree that men & women are not equal.

someone choosing to not follow specific verses doesnt make the verse go away. people deciding to ignore it doesnt change the fact that it WAS followed, and often is STILL followed

Yes but u can then argue that u are basing your belief on direct translation it when you even said your self is loosely based in modern Christianity and interpretation. Cherry picking isn’t the right word, when in fact you can’t make the assumption that because something is identical when something else is based in it.

i see the point ur making. yes, most christians BASE their faith in the bible without following every verse line by line IDENTICALLY. my point being, is that its a gamble. theres so much variety. someone may only follow 2 verses, someone may follow just the new testament, or just certain books- but the common denominator is that they all follow the SAME BOOK. yes, that is a generalization of millions of people. but it is not baseless. because their book LITERALLY says these things.

Anonymous OP 16h

therefore i dont believe its unreasonable for a feminist or egalitarian person to be wary of christians (or any religion for that matter), because their foundational texts EXPLICITLY STATE sexist beliefs MULTIPLE TIMES. do you see what i mean? furthermore, nonreligious people are statistically more likely to be feminists than christians (unsurprisingly)

1

Anonymous OP 16h

I see what your saying, but that would mean your whole argument is flawed, The fact that this is a generalisation of modern Christians or religious people is based off of a direct translation (of which you took the direct linguistic meaning of) which you agreed to say is baseless in their beliefs or at least most beliefs for all Christians. When it isn’t true, not all Christians believe in the “anti feminist” direct teachings of the Bible, it is some. - better said, you say all when we both

The statistic said “more likely” it doesn’t say anything about percentages or actually give me evidence to prove correlation. It could be 1% more it could be that they interviewed 3 ppl. Check your sources.

Anonymous OP 15h

Exactly the point I’m making it’s cherry picking and discriminatory based off of something that isn’t necessary true for everyone in a category. The point I’m making is you can’t justify hatred for another person for a non exclusive category they fall in, when the problem isn’t the category, it’s the subjects on belief. One can be Christian and not hate women one can be Christian and hate women it’s not exclusive. Many also does not mean more than average, it just means the ppl you’ve been near.

Don’t ship politics with religion that’s not fair especially when in the us there is supposed to a separation of church and state.

Don’t need to, I’m being logically sound. The problem is with the argument itself. Also what about Christians who are women, are they not feminists just because they’re Christian? Regardless, of if they are or aren’t more likely to not be feminists your still mixing up sufficient and necessary assumptions and furthermore, the argument alone would be is it fair to assume all Christians and all religious ppl are anti-feminists? The answer regardless is no.
