Women in Christianity

I wanted to learn about the history of women in Christianity...but was sad to learn that we still face many of the same issues

No, that's not the feminist agenda. That's what *Pat Robertson* thinks the feminist agenda is. The feminist agenda is to have women treated equally as men are, in all realms of life.

Absolutely beautiful. Your Barger quote in particular is wonderful. What keeps me Christian is not--could never--be the human leadership, which so often is tempted by Satan to wrong over 1/2 of humanity (this includes Paul), but Jesus Himself who, as our Bible tells us considered women rational, spiritual, and worthy of being saved. Who was the first to witness His ministry? The despised Woman at the Well!  Only Christ could see past what she was to see WHO she was--a child of God.

I dont' think my comment got posted in full. Trying again...

The images are of women serving in different roles in ministry. The quotes are from male christian "leaders", past and present, who are belittling women with their comments and misrepresenting the feminist agenda. The video is NOT a disgrace to women...the comments are, which is the whole point of the video. The video is not applauding the quotes, it is pointing out how sexist church leaders have been and are presently.

The point is to show that women are capable as christian leaders, If this video is a disgrace to anyone, it's to the people who have ridiculed women in ministry and who have misrepresented the feminist movement. Pay attention to *who* is being quoted in each slide, and it will help you understand what the video is about. : )

This video is showing quotes of famous male christian leaders who have belittled women by their comments. The pictures are of women who are serving God in different capacities. The purpose of the video is to show how sexist church leaders have been, and still are.

i have nothing against christianity...it is actually quite similar to islam. but different.

If Exodus 21:10, 2 Samuel 5:13, Chronicles 3:19, 14:3, 1 Kings 11:3 are all wrong than why are they still in the Bible at all??

ITs suppose to ask you "why are women only viewed as something for men to possess not love" ?

& I agree w/ it. Why are women looked at as second-class beings when every man making these claims are following books that weren't even made coherently in a much less civil time?

hate comes in all forms. A woman has just as must right to be a leader in the church as a man. Men who feel this hate must be unsure of themselves.

this video is a disgrace to women everywhere.
