The Bible is very clear on this matter.
The place for women is in the home acting as wife, mother and house keeper.
To think otherwise is heresy and will be punished!

Where are people like you when I am telling religious women what their religion thinks about them? You would make it so much easier to point out the misogynistic nature of that wonderful, magical, loving, high moral, happy-go-lucky Christianity that I hear so much of ...
Old Viking beat me to it. Chapter and verse, please.
Not that I don't believe the Bible would say anything like that, but "I claim I'm a Christian and I claim the Bible says this therefore this is the way it should be" is far too prevalent.
"To think otherwise is heresy and will be punished!"
If you really believe that it'll be punished in the Afterlife, why are you trying to force it down their throats?
Oh -- because YOU want to punish them in THIS life.
You may want to look up Deborah in Judges.
4:3 And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.
4:4 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.
4:5 And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
4:6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedeshnaphtali, and said unto him, Hath not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
4:7 And I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thine hand.
4:8 And Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, then I will go: but if thou wilt not go with me, then I will not go.
5:15 And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; even Issachar, and also Barak: he was sent on foot into the valley. For the divisions of Reuben there were great thoughts of heart.
Will be punished by whom? Is heresy a punishable offense in England these days?
More importantly, are you a dumbfuck?
No, he is Peter... From the town of Kent. England.
I hope he is single, there is no justice if "I" can't get any when sexist asshat here can.
By this "reasoning" a man who chooses to stay home and raise the kids while his wife keeps an outside job should be punished, too, because he's not fulfilling his Biblical role as provider. Right? Right??
I bet you'd love to punish all those naughty working women personally, eh, Peter?
Ew, I feel dirty just typing that.
And exactly how do you plan to punish such perfidious heresy? Are you going to dole out beatings yourself?
You wouldn't even make it to the end of your street, sunshine.

...that's as in Head of the Church of England, the basis of modern Protestant Christianity.
Romans 13:1-5. Deal with it, petey.
I love the smell of annihilated arguments in the morning. Smells like... victory.
Our current insights gained by science over centuries are very clear on this matter.
The place for the bible is getting dusty in a bookshelf, viewed as a hopeless anachronistic collection of strange fairy tales from the bronze age written by goat herders in the middle east, completely irrelevant for the technological and globalized society of the 21st century.
To think otherwise is retarded fundieness and leads to irrational madness.

(btw: My wife is going on a business trip next week. She is managing the construction of a new aircargo terminal at a major international airport. Anybody who tells her that she must be housewife and mother will receive painful punishment by her fist of death.)
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
