The fact that women can do awesome things like....
* Pioneer modern computers....
* Build stuff for the war effort (WWII)....
* Shoot down nutzy Nazis as snipers (WWII, again)....
* Create neat horror movie monsters (Millicent Patrick, creator of The Gill-Man and a ton of other stuff)....
* Be competent Astro/Cosmonauts....
* Create awesome Renaissance Art (Artemisia Gentileschi, who's version of 'Judith Beheading Holofrenes' is even better, more visceral and more 'real' than Caravaggio's)....
* Discover Radioactivity....
* Invent solar panels....
* Isolate and map out Stem Cells....
* Discover and layout DNA....
* Invent the board game, Monopoly....
* Invent Kevlar....
* Give the Roman Empire at their peak (albeit for a time) a real run for their money (Boudica may have lost in the end but she was a badass who actually defeated the Romans as few times. She kind of won in the end...after the fact...by making the Romans realize that mistreating the Britons is a BAD thing....The Head Romans recalled and punished the Governors responsible for the whole mess and subsequent trashing of Britainnia....Respecting and working with Britainna is the best way to 'rule' them)....
* Be Elohim's official spokesperson, leader of armies, military strategist and The First Judge of Ancient Israel (Deborah!).
* TONS OF OTHER STUFF TO THIS DAY!....Inventors! Scientists! Mathematicians! Athletes! Soldiers....
....Shows that women are equal to men and are not inept eternal children. If the Human Female was truly inferior to the Human Male, she would be incapable of doing anything other than cook, clean, shag, birth and mothering.
There's a Bible Translation out there called The Inclusive Bible. It's actually a good translation and tries to be true to the original manuscripts while presenting a more Gender-Equal take on things. In it; The Genesis Account of Adam & Eve goes as such....
* Eve was never Adam's rib. Eve & Adam started as a singular Androgynous person created from the dirt in Genesis 1.
* In Genesis 2; This Androgyne, after not being happy with critter companionship, was put into a "deep sleep" and split into two people....The Male Adam and the Female Eve. This Adam & Eve were created equal in every way and the discrepancies between Genesis 1 & 2 is solved.
* In Genesis 3; After these two dorks ate the Forbidden Fruit, Eve's punishment concerning playing second fiddle to Adam isn't directly commanded by Deity but presented as a prediction. It's like "I don't like it but I have to go along with it as your punishment, buuuut....Adam is going to treat you like garbage on account of you being a Female".
....Thing is; It makes a lot more sense and some of this may actually be valid in regard to what the earliest manuscripts may actually have said.
If this translation is anything to go by; Even misogyny was not ordained by The Hebrew Deity....who's androgynous. Also; "Paul's" most misogynist and antisemitic pronouncements are in the Epistles not really written by him. The ones in the Epistle that were written by him were either badly misinterpreted, taken out of context or added by later scribes to promote misogyny and make the Genuine Paul stuff jive with the Fakey Paul stuff.
In fact; Christianity started out as a peaceful Proto-Reform/Essene/NeoZoroastrian Judaism for both Jew & Gentile that was Proto-Feminist. It was very popular with Roman women due to the fact that, in the Christian sect, women were respected as equals and as humans, unlike the Roman way with saw women as mere chattel (but then the Romans meddled and ruined a good thing).
Christianity needs to be re-claimed and brought back to it's more Progressive, Humanitarian, Humanist, Egalitarian, Social Justice roots! While I will still embrace the Dharmic Paths and NeoPaganism, I will also reclaim Christianity as my own. You can call me an "Eclectic Universalist ChristoDharmic NeoPagan".
Also; Christianity to me is like Baha'i....a blend of several Faiths (Hinduism, Buddhism, Daoism, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Proto-Islam).
