Message Subject Women and the Bible----Christianity only gives us whores and virgins to identify with.

There are enough good women in the Bible to have supplied 2000 years of baby girls with given names. Look it up.

Nowhere in the Bible does it say that Mary Magdalene was a whore. That is modern day liberal opinion. Look it up. Find the quote for yourself.

Find some other translations for "virgin", or a hebrew scholar's opinion, don't use modern day english meaning of the word.

It sounds to me like you are reading somebody else's opinions and taking them for your own rather than taking up the book and reading for yourself.

Let's look at a few examples that were overlooked.

You forgot the other Mary, that is Mary, sister of Lazarus, and Martha, her sister. Mentioned many time in episodes of Jesus' life.

What about all the hundreds of women of the old Testament?

For heaven's sake, what about the Queen of Sheba? Now there is a role model, not only a queen, but an adventuresome, curious and probably very intelligent woman. She had a lot of guts.

If you are looking for in-your-face feminists, you won't find many, tho the contentious woman, who is mentioned more than once, might fit the bill.

Go do your own investigating to see what is really there, then make an honest informed opinion of your own.

Let's be realistic here. The bible MENTIONS women, who are usually wives subject to the whim of men or their husbands.

Or prostitutes and whores.

Or virgins who have never known a man.

Wife, prostitute, virgin.

Women, in the new testament, are told not to speak in church.

In the old testament, they are unclean and brought about sin to all the world through deception and gullibility.

How very empowering for the daughters of humanity.
