Christian women... the bible claims that during menstration you are "unclean" and should be shunned...

Question

Aren't you offended by how your own "holy" book treats you?

You're second class citizens in the bible.

In Genesis, Eve is blamed for all the evil in the world.

Don't you have a problem with that?

Answer 1

You're going to get burned at the stake if you keep bringing up "facts."

Answer 2

First try to grasp spiritual meanings you speak of spritual things/ Second Christians are not under the law the question would be better directed to Jews. Third. All things were made clean by the Christ.We ar not under this is clean that is clean types of things which were shadows of the coming of the Mesisah. BTW we no longer make animal sacrifices in case that was going to be your next question.We by faith are no longer sinful flesh but new creatures born by faith through the atonement and resurrection of Jesus Christ. the problems of the flesh are best argued by those like you who endure to live according to sinful flesh.

Answer 3

The Bible tells that to women who didn't have any hygene at their disposal. Frankly, I think any woman would love it to be left alone in those days when she hurts. That's what the Bible says. Women are not even supposed to work then.

BTW, Adam says Eve is guilty, not God. Actually, God expected Adam to guard the garden from the snake.

No, I have no problem... Why do you?

Answer 4

No, that is how God created us. To help you men. The Bible says that Eve was deceived (tricked) and the man willingly choose to do wrong. That doesn't make us second rate citizens, it make you stronger because for some reason your not complete without us. We have to suffer through menstruation for our little babies. I wouldn't trade them for nothing.. and plus I think it is gross too. Any women who thinks having your time of the month is clean is sick!

Answer 5

As an atheist, this is one area where I agree with the bible. Menstruation is defintiely unclean. But, I don't think they should be shunned. Having been married in the past, you should be at least on guard. You never know what a will set her off.

Answer 6

Why do you always ask questions about whether or not women are offended by the Bible? I mean, why not branch out and ask some different ones once in a while?

Answer 7

Sinned enter the world through Adam not Eve

Answer 8

Proverbs 31:10-31

The Woman Who Fears the Lord
10 An excellent wife who can find?
She is far more precious than jewels.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her,
and he will have no lack of gain.
12 She does him good, and not harm,
all the days of her life.
13 She seeks wool and flax,
and works with willing hands.
14 She is like the ships of the merchant;
she brings her food from afar.
15 She rises while it is yet night
and provides food for her household
and portions for her maidens.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard.
17 She dresses herself with strength
and makes her arms strong.
18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable.
Her lamp does not go out at night.
19 She puts her hands to the distaff,
and her hands hold the spindle.
20 She opens her hand to the poor
and reaches out her hands to the needy.
21 She is not afraid of snow for her household,
for all her household are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes bed coverings for herself;
her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is known in the gates
when he sits among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them;
she delivers sashes to the merchant.
25 Strength and dignity are her clothing,
and she laughs at the time to come.
26 She opens her mouth with wisdom,
and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
27 She looks well to the ways of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children rise up and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women have done excellently,
but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands,
and let her works praise her in the gates.

Answer 9

Actually during my period I prefer to be left alone anyway.

I think the rest is a bunch of BS designed to wipe out the goddess cultures of the past, where women led tribes and people prayed to goddesses. St. Paul in the Bible also is reputed to have hated women.

Answer 11

No!and as for eve every woman knows that it is imposible to make a man eat anything he dosent want to and since Adam also ate of the fruit they were both guilty!
