You assert that women were treated like chattel "in the culture of the Bible." You do not prove that. If you mean that the world in which the Biblical revelation unfolded treated women as chattel, you perhaps have a point. If you mean that Divine Revelation guided men to treat women as chattel, then it is not me who is stupid.

And yes, I have something against feminists (I have repeatedly stated so), but not against women, as feminists are not really women anyway.

Not really women? So none of them actually have wombs or vaginas, then?
This is the most delightfully absurd "No True Scotsman" fallacy I've seen in a while.
Well, I am a feminist, and I have a penis, so no, feminists aren't necessarily women. I guess that isn't what contraeverything meant though...
Women as chattel
"Exodus 20:17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's. " KJV
It is only one of the frigging 10 Commandments moron
..and gays arent really humans
..and atheists are vile demons
...and all muslims have TNT strapped to their chest.
Anymore fail that you want to share with us?
your half right, I am a feminist, and I am a guy, so I guess I am not a woman, but my sister is a feminist, and I am pretty sure she is a woman, I mean hell, I saw her being born
"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither MALE NOR FEMALE: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus." Galatians 3:26 (King James Version, so don't go giving me bullshit about liberal translations)
Within the Biblical text itself they are treated that way, and there are explicit commands for people to continue to treat women as necessarily subservient to the male. Don't pretend that it was simply a coincidence, while simultaneously showing your own contempt for the women who fight for equal rights and treatment.
I would love to see how fast his views would change if he became a woman... If he was the one that had to be submissive, controlled, and treated like a child or pet, his views wouldn't be so biblical.
/as feminists are not really women anyway./
Yes, just like gays aren't real men. *eyeroll* Get a life, you pathetic loser.
I wonder what he meant by 'the culture of the Bible'? The Bible is the product of a culture, and therefore, yes, what goes on in the Bible was culturally what the people who wrote the Bible did to their ladies.
Also, I guess he's unaware of how the Bible's anti-women statements are guiding men to treat women in the present? Hummm. He makes just so many happy little ironies in a single post!
what are they,then?, space aliens?. And by the way, if the people of the Biblical times treated women as chattel and they said that they did it EXACTLY AS GOD TOLD THEM, which part I'm missing?
Come on, everyone knows that real women are subservient to men, because they're properly feminine and they know their place!
Yeah, right. In your dreams, you fucking chauvinist asshat. What a lying little turd.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
