yesi agree mainly with peace and equality ( well the original teachings of christ)
but my main problem with any organized religion, is the distortion, and the radicals. That just ruins the message

*whips out bible*

there isn't much equality between the sexes being preached about in the first book of corinthians chapter 11 verse 7-11.

And maybe I'm reading too much into it but it would seem as though that whoeevr wrote this particular book was narrow minded and perhaps did a little too much traveling.

Just thought I'd say that.

Lets read on though shall we?

"In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman. For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God."

Yeah thats the definition of sexism right there.

I hate it when people take the bible at face value & start throwing verses at you.

It`s a book of ideals & parables , not a f*cking rulebook.

"For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man."

30 years after the Equal Pay Act (gender and race should not influence pay) women STILL only get 82p where men get £1, for exactly the same job.

I've just burnt my bra.

There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried. I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.
