For centuries the leaders of Christian thought spoke of women as a necessary evil, and the greatest saints of the Church are those who despise women the most.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The Catholic Church has never really come to terms with women. What I object to is being treated either as Madonnas or Mary Magdalenes.
The worst enemy women have is in the pulpit.
Most women seem to be required to pit themselves against men in dramatic situations, and the men got to pit themselves against ideas or God.
There were theoretical elements in the subjection of women and it is not possible to avoid the conclusion that a large contribution was made to them by the Church. In part this was a matter of its hostile stance towards sexuality.
Women are the root of all evil. I ought to know. I'm Evel.
Women are the harshest critics of other women.
Holy scripture does not hold women back. It's the people that decide to interpret it in such a way for their own, sometimes political, agendas.
All religions have always hated females.
In all systems of theology the devil figures as a male person. Yes, it is women who keep the church going.
There were so many outstanding women in scripture that were leaders. And, you know, the organized church sometimes puts boundaries on us that the Bible doesn't.
