Women(Status) In Christianity. (Jesus, tradition, bible, marriage, baptize)

[samgeorge11]

One question which tingles me most is about the women's status in Bibble. What position they occupy in society? Are they equal to Men?
If so, then why were they treated as slaves? Why were meetings held(in European countries)) whether to consider them as humans or not??(about 1500 years back). Why England regarded them as second class citizens. Obviously we all about female infant burials in the east...

It's interesting that issues concerning women tingles you. How tingled do you get from this Vanity Fair article?

DAUGHTERS OF FRANCE, DAUGHTERS OF ALLAH

From news reports, it may have seemed that the greatest threat to France's secular values was Islamic headscarves in public schools. But thousands of the French girls wearing the scarf are trapped in strict Muslim families, forced into marriage, and brutalized for seeking the freedoms all around them. ...

The article is but one of many.

In Christianity over time, or in the Bible(NT)?

Galations 3:26 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, 27for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. NIV

I think that is pretty clear. The rest depends on current societal views.

Extremely tingled I would say, but its your misjudgment which tingles me here. Let me attack your statement clause by clause.
*Firstly wearing a head scarf wouldn't make her backward in any way, cause from the very beginning Moslem women weren't denied education(unlike ancient Christians, Jews, Hindus etc..), infact Islam was the major reason for Renaissance.
*Secondly "forced into marriage" is absurd and insane. Every Moslem girl has full right to chose her husband (see him, decide etc etc..) and obviously has every right of DENIAL! Thats why I lay extreme emphasis to rely on authetic information and go deep into the roots rather than assaulting any religious traditions.
*Brutalized for seeking freedom. Lets see what you regard freedom as. Is it freedom of speech? Freedom of Education? Freedom of Voting? Freedom of Property? Life? Inheritane? ..Well these all are satisfied
OR pre-marriage Sex is the only Freedom you consider as freedom??

Hoping for an early reply!!

The practices of the Catholic church and its offspring are about as far removed from the doctrines of the Bible as the earth is from the sky.

C'mon Dan...

Don't hold back! Tell us how you really feel. You don't really need all that tact now do you?

Women represent religions in the Bible.If you married an Egyptian woman for example, it meant you married into Egyptian Babylonian ways since Babylon ways moved to Egypt. Adam was with Woman in the Garden of Eden. Woman was the religion of God.When Woman got contaminated she fell and was renamed Eve and gave birth to fallen mankind.

Now Mary was a Judean and the mother of Jesus who was also a Judean.Jesus called Mary as Woman when he said."Woman behold your son" indicating he restored mankind back to Woman.So if we want to get back to the Garden of Eden we should be spiritual Judeans like Jesus.

Christ called Mary Woman because she was the superlative woman in His life, as was every Jewish man's mother. It's the same way Christ is referred to as the Son of Man. Ehich man? The superlative man, God.
