There is nothing in Christianity which suggests that women are to be subordinate to men. What if the husband is a Moslem, is the woman to be commanded to raise their children as Moslems? What if he is an atheist? Is the woman supposed to tamely submit to his beliefs?

Old Testament proclamations were issued when civilization among the Hebrews was limited to a pastoral society which no longer exists. Is the adultress to be stoned? Once again this is a Islamic concept, not Christian.

God never intended that the Bible cover all possible situations in the future. Again that is an Islamic concept.
Should we be marrying sisters as was done in Old Testament times?

Sacrifices by killing animals also went out of style, should that be resumed as well?

That is simply not true. You seem to have ignored Scripture in the New Testament cited in the article which clearly states that the woman is subject to the man and gives the reasons why.

You don't seem to be aware that we are under the New Covenant of the grace of Jesus Christ contained in the New Testament of the Bible which is where these Scriptures live. We are no longer under the Old Covenant of the Old Testament. It seems that you either don't know the New Testament, or don't believe it, or don't care.
