Crazy bible verse and laws. 1 Timothy 2:11-15
It amazes me that there are so many 'Christian' haters out there that are doing EVERYTHING in their power to deny civil rights to gays. They claim that it's 'God' that is speaking through them...it's the Bible that says Homosexuality is a sin. Hmmmm. Well isn't it interesting the things they choose to say are a sin and some they 'overlook'. There are so many rules and sins in the Bible, it's no wonder they only read the passages and sins that go against what they believe.
Here is a passage from the same Bible that they claim says homosexuality is a sin. It's 1 Timothy 2:11-15. Here is the passage:
A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
What does this mean? Simply put it means that women were created second (Eve was created AFTER Adam) and women are to submit to men. Women are not worthy of teaching or having any authority over men.
Crazy huh? This is an actual passage from the Book of Timothy. I'm guessing that all of those people that are hiding behind the Bible to push gay hate...live by this rule. If not...they are total hypocrites.
This verse means that women are not to have authority over men. Jesus did not say this, Paul did. Jesus did say that women cannot have authority over men, but did not speak against them educating. It was Paul’s opinion that women could not teach.
Still kind of crazy.
