“Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. Yet she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.” 1 Tim 2

And, if you actually attended Church, you might learn that the verse above doesn't mean what you think it does. For if it did, God Himself would not have given me my own voice, my own thoughts. Just thought you should know that.

And if you had bothered to READ my replies on this thread, you would know I’ve been going to church for 40 years...

But the verse I quoted DOES apply to women teaching men in the church - something many churches allow, but that contradicts what scripture says.

But then, scripture isn’t something most modern churches care about...
