Conservative women need to keep their mouth shut and stay in the kitchen. There are bible quotes on this. Every time they speak in public the only response should be

KJV: "But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence."

RSV: "I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men; she is to keep silent."

GNB: "I do not allow them to teach or to have authority over men; they must keep quiet."

I wanna see hundreds of replies to every tradwife politicians with these every time they speak and I wanna see reporters repeat these instead of asking questions. If they want rights and be treated with respect, ditch the religion and trad shit and join the rest of us in the future.

How about we start calling them out on all the foolish things the Bible forbids, but they ignore and do anyway such as:

  • Wearing clothing made of blended fabrics - leviticus 19:19

  • Wearing ripped or torn clothing - leviticus 10:6

  • Eating shellfish - leviticus 11:10

  • Eating pork - leviticus 11:4

  • No short hair cuts, and no shaving beards - leviticus 19:27

  • No tattoos or piercings - leviticus 19:28

  • No alcohol in church - leviticus 10:9

  • No working on the sabbath - leviticus 23:3

  • No divorce - mark 10:9

  • No wearing jewelry - timothy 2:9

  • No lying - leviticus 19:11

  • Don't mistreat foreigners - leviticus 19:33-34

  • Buying or selling land - leviticus 25:23

I could honestly do this all day as there are so very many things to write here, but I feel this is sufficient to demonstrate my point.

Don't let these people use their faith as justification to be terrible humans until they follow every word "written" by their infallible god in their hypocritical self contradictory book that none of them have actually read.

To be fair, some of those restrictions were lifted in the new testament.

"It is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person." -Matthew 15:11

They don't have any problem pulling from the Old Testament whenever it suits their bigotry.

the new testament

Wait a second, Omnipotent Man didn't get it right on the first try? Something's fishy here.

Ok, but should we still banish people from society if they have sex during a menstrual cycle as leviticus 20:18 commands?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
