        A good Christian just blindly and runs without challenge with the interpretation of the Bible that is given to them by somebody who claims to “speak with God”.

        If that sounds too much like blindly letting oneself be led by people who are either insane or shameless liars, that’s because it is indeed that.

        Which is why they fought a short 30 year long war on being able to translate the Bible into the language of commoners (of course oversimplified to the extreme).

      1 Timothy 2:12 says, “I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet”.
