Dr. Claude Mariottini - Professor of Old Testament: Biblical Feminism

Woman aircraft worker, Vega Aircraft Corporati...
I have always found this subject interesting and it's never going to go away. What does God really think about how Women should be treated by men and in society? Many people think that the history of the Church is the accurate portrait of how the Bible tells us God wants men to relate to women. Can't be any more wrong.

Benjamin Ledford, a student at the University of Idaho discusses the theme of Biblical feminism in this video, which is a companion to his article, “Is God a Chauvinist?” which was published in the Argonaut, the university’s school paper.








Here is a link to another post by Mariottini quoting the paper referenced above:
Is God A Chauvinist

Dr. Claude Mariottini - Professor of Old Testament: Biblical Feminism

I have spoken to many an atheist who uses the track record for the church on the treatment of women as a pretext for rejecting God. I responded to a post called An "Evil" of Christianity in response to a tweet exchange where the woman challenged the validity of the Bible.
