To start with, I’d like to say that the fact that a new bible comes out every year is rather dodgy and unrealistic. And there are many reasons to why we can say that the bible is a very sexist book now, in the past and before it was changed and edited by the priests it may have been God's words. Yet, now it is entirely the work of sexist men who want to control people. There are many versus in the bible which lower the status of a woman and also don't allow her to teach and speak in a church. It is very hard to believe that God would treat his creation in such an unfair manner, I myself have great faith and belief in God, but I don't believe in the word of the sexist Christian man. "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence." One of the versus that really strikes me was this one, it clearly states that woman cannot teach nor have authority over a man, it also says that a woman must be silenced. also in the bible it says that woman will be unclean for seven days if "they give birth to a man child", but she will be unclean for 14 days if she gives birth to a "maid child", again it states that a woman is the source of evil to a man, "And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart [is] snares and nets, [and] her hands [as] bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.". From this I conclude that the western woman or most of the western woman follow a religion that lowers their status and treats them very poorly.
