I agree. Secular humanism claims all "progress" for itself and blames everything on religion, especially Christianity. But if you see what people did outside of where God revealed Himself to people, through Judaism and Christianity, their beliefs were confused and spiritually lost. Such as living women having to be burned to death with their husbands in India. And on the treatment of women, I'm amazed after all I'd heard before reading the Bible at how equally women are regarded. It was comforting to me as a woman myself. They can be just as faithful - or if they choose to be, just as faithless - as the men. And a faithful woman is as praised as a faithful man. In the world outside of Israel, though, women were chattel. I remember reading that one of the famous Greek philosophers said something like that a mistress was for having conversations with because a wife wasn't, she was more of a slave and inferior. I believe when you really study things without prejudice, then of course God is perfectly just and treats women equally to men. God bless.

Totally agree @doule . A lot of people tend to take verses out of context to either justify their selfish ill will, or to criticise the Gospel and the faith of born again believers, also for their selfish ill benefit to justify what they think best.
I just wish those who are brainwashed will read things in context and stop blaming faith for almost everything.
Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting! Truly appreciated! upvoted your reply!
You're welcome! Thanks for your reply. I upvoted it. It's very hard to listen to unbelievers but it's like God's Word says. People who aren't believers don't understand it, and they've been taken captive by Satan to do his will and aren't listening to God and are hostile to everything about Him. We, though, can see they're getting God all wrong.
Yes, and those who have eyes to see and those who have ears to hear, let them be known to the wisdom of God. :)
It is hard, I totally agree. I have to ask God to keep renewing my heart daily so that I can understand how He feels... the rejection and the betrayal of His heart from His own creation (mankind)... is sometimes so hard to swallow.
