Not in the least. The thing that put me off was the hypocracy in the church, the meanness of church-goers and the bible-bashing idiocy of evangelicals. If they are an example of what religion does to people I would advise everyone to run as far away as possible when they approach you. Alot of the women have horrendous personality and personal problems too and that is why they are there.

The female depiction in ancient texts is how it was in those times...not meant to be demeaning but the womans place was in the home doing the homely chores while the man was in the fields tending to the flocks where it was a little dangerous for the woman to be...and much of the older beliefs of how woman should be are still in place in these same countrys even today such as the Muslim beliefs
What was the outcome of Roe v. Wade?

Do you see more and more people who seem to "spiritually bankrupt?" Can this be a good thing if so?

You're reading Female Atheists: Does the demeaning role of women in the Bible (and most religious texts) have anything to do with your current belief system?

The thing for me is, how can the Christian God go from Old Testament (and treating women like shit), to New Testament (where he saves a prostitue) and still be the same God? Thanks for the answer! +2

You're welcome. Yes, alot of contradictions. I don't understand how God's chosen man, Lot, could offer his wife and daughters to the Sodomites to be abused all night and then sleep with his daughters. Does that mean that if we all practice incest and prostitute are family that we will be well looked on by God?:(
