The Bible clearly does not treat men and women the same. For me this is what I saw that really "broke the camels back". The "rule of equivalency" is just the doctrine of equality masquerading as the Bible. The Bible requires or applies things...

I have been reading Tom Shipley's book, "Man and Woman in Biblical Law". His first seven chapters, or as he refers to them as "articles", establish patriarchy as the created order, using none other than the writings of Paul to establish this.

From my New Book : Headship Denied How False Equality Rewrote Marriage Few ideas have infiltrated Christian marriage as quietly and destructively as the belief that husbands and wives are equal in authority. This is rarely defended from...
