(discussion about feminism and female preachers)
Moreover, I do not allow a woman to teach or to usurp authority over a man. Instead, she is to be quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve.And it was not Adam who was deceived. It was the woman who was deceived and became a lawbreaker.

Donkeys were made before Adam. Adam should bow down to liberals.
Eve was deceived by a magical creature, Adam was deceived by another human. Whose the weaker?
Your god set Eve up to fail so that he could have thousands of years to damn people to hell.
1 Timothy was a letter in which Paul states his opinion. It is not a pronouncement from any god.
According to my bible Adam was standing next to Eve while she talked to the snake and ate of the fruit. She passed it to him and he too ate the fruit. God even punishes the snake first, then Eve AND Adam. He punishes them all for they all had broken his law.
You are an idiot and a sexist.
Now go and read your own holy book for a change.
myheadhurts: Most research agrees that 1 Timothy wasn't even written by Paul, but well after his death (Lüdemann 1995, Wilson 1984, Pagels 1975, Metzger 1987).
Moreover, I do not allow a woman to teach or to usurp authority over a man. Instead, she is to be quiet. For Adam was formed first..
TheNegro Calvinist huh?
Moreover, I do not allow a black man to teach or to usurp authority over a white man. Instead, he is to be quiet.
Too bad about those old versions of the bible dug up that said Mary of Mag. was one of the best preachers of Jesus' message.
Oh, wait, you all say they don't count.
And it was not Adam who was deceived. It was the woman who was deceived and became a lawbreaker.
That's not in the Bible.
... she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
He was with her. She took the fruit, ate it and handed it to him and he ate it too. All the rest of that crap about her tricking him or talking him into it or his being less guilty than she, is popular "kindergarten Bible story" nonsense made up by people after the fact.
First of all, it took a LOT of convincing for Eve to eat the apple. Secondly, *Adam* took the apple (from Eve) without even questioning. This shows that, clearly, women are smarter than men, and that men should NOT have authority.
"Man and woman he made them..."
...together, at the same time. Then she grabbed him by the ears and sat on his face. He didn't know what to do.
Adam was the rough draft, Lillith was the prototype, and Eve was final result.
Eve wasn't deceived, but Adam was too stupid to "Just Say No."
Yeah, and Adam was the dumbass who listened to Eve.
"Here Adam, eat this!"
"Sure, OK."
Sorry, but it took the guile of Satan to trick a woman. All Eve had to do was tell Adam to eat the forbidden fruit. Moron.
Confused?
