[RE: Religion Responsible for Abuse of Women?]
I don't believe anyone said that God could not use women. We all have our place in which we can serve God. We are all saved to do good works. But to serve Him we have to 1st be obedient.
For example, when a woman starts claiming to be a pastor she has stopped being obedient and is no longer following God.

WAITAMINNIT! I thought you people didn't believe in WORKS! You only believe in 'faith,' because ACTS belongs to the Eebil Katlicks.
Gitcher shit straight.
We all know about the time god raped that married 14yr old piece of ass, got her knocked up, and let some other fucker raise his kid.
That makes one wonder why fundies have such a problem with teen sex and broken families, seeing as how their god is a pedophile and absentee father.
So what if God told her to be a pastor? Joan of Arc was ordered by God. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Harriet Tubman had a vision from God, or at the very least angels. So what makes you think he wouldn't send a woman to take the position of pastor, which is pretty small in comparison?

No, she's just stopped listening to that sexually dysfunctional misogynist, Paul, who invented all that anti-woman stuff himself out of thin air with no support either from the OT or the teachings of Jesus.
So God couldn't maybe be using women in the pastoral role?
Further evidence that fundies worship the Bible, not the deity it describes.
?????? a WOMAN who preaches about and FOR god is no longer following god?!?!?!
I know there are verses in the new testament that says woman arent allowed to teach, and even they make no sense, but how do you think THIS makes sense?
God could not use me without asking. See, at least one said it.
I do not adhere to Romans 1:27, m'kay?
I believe I'm just as useful and strong as some men. My husband often says I'm stronger than he is, and he's at least a foot taller than me. And I'm the responsible one for our household, in most ways. I do the bills, I keep track of where everything is, I keep it clean and the washing done. My husband also says I'm the smart one, and he's an engineer.
I have no intention to just obey anyone. I intend to use my brain, supposedly given to me by God.
Strange that God being a woman Herself, should be so down on the members of Her own sex. She probably wants all the earthmen for Her own ends. And of course, like men everywhere, they scurry about like demented pratts trying to obtain the beneficence of Her heavenly delights.
Male pastors generally say they joined the clergy because they felt called by God and were obeying that call.
Apparently, when a woman obeys that call, she is somehow also disobeying God at the same time. Jerry has dug himself a logical hole, and until he can resolve this paradox, I don't think we should bother listening to a damned thing he says on this subject, as he can't even explain his own views on it coherently.
And why is it that Christians wonder why we think they're a bunch of misogynistic assholes? I forget...
And what kind of kind, loving god condemns all women on earth because the first one he made disobeyed him?
Hmm...Let me get this straight, You're saying that if a women has a higher position than the man that she is no longer following "God".....Unbelievable.....You cheap, contemptible, frivolous, inconsequent, inconsiderable, inessential, inferior, irrelevant, narrow-minded jerk. From what i've learned from devoted Christians alike is that Women and Men are equal in all ways. And it is wrong in many ways to accuse such things.
For example: Mary Magdalene!
Mary was a follower of Jesus who entered the circle of those taught by Jesus during his Galilean ministry. She became prominent during the last days, accompanying Jesus during his travels and following him to the end.
YOU FAIL!

The sad part is that you don't see a contradiction between those two statements and the notion that your religion thinks of women as second class citizens. It's called brainwashing and there is a cure for that. The only observable side effect is the ability to think clearly for the first time in decades.
@#1085700: I agree...that whole "women's submission" BS is NOT God's command! It is Paul's OPINION! I highly, highly doubt that God would want half of the human race (by the way, both genders were created in God's image; a convincing if somewhat indirect argument for a Divine Feminine among the Trinity) to be unquestioning slaves to the other half, simply because of the difference in genitals!
I would love to see our "pal" Jerry try to account for his stupidity when he gets to Heaven and finds a Divine Feminine, a Mother, seated beside the Father and Son! I've thought it over and I strongly believe that She exists...
@ Doubting Thomas: Adam disobeyed too, you know...
"when a woman starts claiming to be a pastor"
When any worthless, lying shitbag starts claiming to be a pastor, laugh at it.
FTFY dumbfuck.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
