Rubbishing Chimamanda's works because you do not like her politics and ideals is low of you.

I was more concerned with addressing the part of old school or modern Christianity.

At women talking in churches: context of that passage/ what they were trying to address is key.

God punished Adam for listening to His wife Eve; same God told Abraham to listen to Sarah when it was time to send Haggai and Ishmael away.

A man can mischievously use the first point to teach men to NEVER listen to their wives;

A woman can mischievously use the 2nd point to teach men to ALWAYS listen to their wives.

Most people do not read the Bible for themselves so it is easy to quote half truth, lies and their emotions packed as fact.

I see. I might have reservations about this especially as it relates to the fact that the passage used by Reno might is also be subject to contextual analysis. But I'll leave that for another day so as not to get into a religious argument. Thanks.

How can people lack so much comprehension? Lmao.

I never said women aren't marrying, I said the "oh yes members" are not much.

Women are marrying their soul mates every Saturday, understanding men, real men, not the misogynistic arseholes allover this forum.

If you decide to marry oh yes member, rush and go grab one, the career women are marrying men that know their worth.

Please open your thick skull and comprehend.

Some things are straightforward: do not steal, submit to your husband, love your wife, obey your parents, etc. etc.

I agree with Reno's first statement on the surface.

His thought process however shows in his response to the lady when he said feminism means men &women are equal while the Bible expects wives to submit to husbands in everything.

If Reno understood what submission met in Christianity, then he would know the 'equality' of men & women does not negate submission.

“Wives, submit to your husbands.”

That’s not for women to be submissive to every male. Just the one she’s married to. Simple as that.

Why are you people like this? The man was obviously talking about the fact that feminism contradicts scriptures, but you deemed it fit to bring in cheating, domestic violence e.t.c. Are you not ashamed of yourself? cheesy, Una no go stay on course. When someone points out your failings as a Christian, accept it and repent. Do not out of your inability to not have an argument tell us none of us is a complete Christian. It's not useful information.

Lol

This submission of a thing has led many wives to their early graves.
The word submission has so much been misused by Africans.

Please Mr. Reno Omockery, can you come out and beat your chest that you're a full Christian?

Y'all quote the Bible verse when it suits you. You are all hypocrites in this part of the world, no one, I repeat, no single person is following the whole teachings of the bible. Everyone just opens up a chapter and quotes the one that suits them.

No place in the Bible says men should cheat on their wives, no verse says men should turn their wives into punching bags, no verse says men should turn their wives into slaves, no verse says men should complain as the breadwinners of the family.

But what we have today are toddlers in adult bodies calling themselves men.

Like I said submission has been highly misused by African men, it's become something else entirely.

When men start reading their bibles and doing their duties duly, without complaining, women will follow suit. (For women who wants to follow anyway)

Because as I dey, Christianity or not, I'm doing whatever makes me happy.

These allusions you made are quite funny to me. There are no contradictions here. If for anything, It should tell you that God is a very rational Being. The first was an act of reproach due to disobedience inspired by Eve to an established law and God's instructions. The key thing was that there was a "law" in place. The second was Sarah using her free will to make a suggestion as human. She couldn't fathom bearing kids at 90. She broke no law by this act neither did Abram. All in all, both cases had different spiritual and earthly purpose to fulfill. Human think they are so smart now that they try to rationalize the way of God with the ways of Man.

You can call Christianity anything you like but instructions are always clear without any element of ambiguity. "22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything."

If you seek to reform the above quoted because it's not sufficiently mainstream for what you feel the type of Christianity you want is, then sis, you may want to explore other faiths.
