Why Should Men and Women Be Held Equal?

Men are stronger, faster, smarter, and more logical than women. The Bible even says that men are superior to women and females only exist to give birth and serve their husbands! Why should they be equal when even God agrees that they're useless and inferior?

    Human beings are human beings and as such have the same rights.

    Or should.

    Lord Trollington is a troll, a useless and inferior one it seems,  It is right there in his stupid name.

    The Bible says God created men and women in His own image, and therefore equal. You do realize that men would not exist without women, right?

    No true Christians should detest this advice. 

    This arrangement does not make a wife inferior to her husband. It actually helps her to fulfill the role God had in mind for a wife when he said: “It is not good for the man (Adam) to continue to be alone. 

    I am going to make a helper for him, as a complement of him. Just as Christ, the head of the congregation, displays love, a Christian husband is to exercise loving headship. When he does so, his wife feels secure and finds satisfaction in being respectful, supportive, and submissive. 

    Imitating Jesus’ example requires that his followers love one another just as he loved them. Eph. 5:25 

    A Christian wife shows respect for her husband’s authority by helping him fulfill his role as family head.

     She does not belittle him, manipulate him, or usurp his position.

     Rather, she is supportive and cooperative. When his decisions are not to her liking, she may respectfully express her thoughts, but she remains submissive.

    It's bad form to defend your position with a being that you don't believe actually exists. The Bible doesn't say that, nor does Christianity teach that. Using my religion to back your atheistic misogyny is just despicable. But my religion says we are equal in God's eyes. Even the parts of the Bible that you atheists like to pick out of context are actually endorsing equality of women.

    Please show me the place where it says that men are superior to women and females only exist to give birth in the Bible.  Oh wait...Duh...There is no place where it says that.

    It does say that wives are suppose to obey their husbands.  But in the verse right before that it says to married couples "Obey one another."  It then spends three verses on how a wife "obeys" her husband by meaning his number one emotional need of respect.  It then spends 9 verses showing how a husband "obeys" his wife by meeting her number one emotion need by loving her and how he is to sacrifice his life for her.  

    What the Bible actually says is " In Christ there is no male or female."  We are equal before him.

    The Bible says no such thing, the Bible says men and women are equals.
