Comments:

Here is a transcript of a YouTube video that I will not mention, that talks about the way organised religion controlled and still controls women. I left out some names of countries that are in war with each other since a long time. I don’t like to engage in political debates. I am Belgian, a woman with Christian background, and I know all about the dramas and horrors of the crusades which are not mentioned in it. I know also that mistreating women, the way it is described, does not happen just in the countries of the so-called Abrahamic religions. It also happens in Asia, Africa, India – other cultures, other beliefs- but same attitude towards women.

Hereafter is the transcript and it is a real challenge.

The video starts with an excerpt of a very old interview of two free Christian ‘women’ by an American ‘female interviewer’ who had a talk show from 1986 to 2011. It is maybe more than 30 years old. Mixed afterwards with different male ‘speakers’ which I don’t name.

Transcript

Woman: My life is free from religion. It's not a negative thing. It's a positive thing.

Female interviewer: It is positive in what way? Tell me.

Woman: Because I don't believe in any supernatural deity, particularly a male supernatural deity that is authoritarian and telling us what to do. And if you don't do what he says, you go to hell, for example. That's a very negative, thought controlling kind of.

Female interviewer: Why? Do you believe in a female one?

Woman: Well, I don't. There certainly is a goddess movement of float, but I think it's more feminism than it is religion, but it doesn't appeal to me.

Female interviewer: So, you believe that you have total control over your life and you're responsible for what happens to you when there is nothing else.

Woman: Well, of course, people don't have total control of their life. I believe there's no supernatural control over my life.

Female interviewer: How do you suppose it got here?

Woman: I got here the same way everyone else got here. I think it has a lot more to do with women going through labour than it has anything to do with the male god.

I'm for equality of the sexes and I'm pointing out that probably the most patriarchal sexist institution in the world is organized religion. So, I'm opposed to sexism.

Speaker: For millennia, the great theologians and prophets of our religions have set to work on the riddle of womanhood.

And the result in various times and places has been widow burning and honour killing and genital mutilation, a cultic obsession with virginity, just other forms of physical and psychological abuse so kaleidoscopic in variety as to scarcely admit of being summarized.

Now I have no doubt that much of this sexist evil predates religion and can be ascribed to our biology. But there's no question that religion promulgates and renders sacrosanct attitudes toward women that would be unseemly in a brachiating ape.

Now while man was made in the image of God, woman was made in the image of man according to Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Her humanity therefore is derivative. It's ersatz.

The Old Testament values the life of a woman at 1/2 to 2/3 that of a man. The Quran says that the testimony of two women is required to offset the testimony of one man and every woman is deserving of one half her brother's share of inheritance.

The biblical God has made it perfectly clear that women are expected to live in absolute subjugation to their fathers until the moment they are pressed into connubial service to their husbands.

The New Testament offers no relief. I mean St. Paul put it in his letter to the Ephesians. Wives be subject to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church. As the church is subject to Christ, so let wives be subject to their husbands in all things.

The Quran delivers the same message and, on most translations, says that disobedient wives should be whipped or scourged or beaten.

Woman: I do have an objection or at least feel that women should think about their belief in a patriarchal male deity and the idea that men in the church can tell women what to do because God is male and that the pope must always be male because Jesus was male.

We're dealing with a real sexist institution. If you go back to the Bible, women are called throughout the Bible. They're termed as dangerous people or appt to turn people away from religion.

There are even passages in the Bible of the Lord ordering women to be ripped into pieces because they're whores.

Speaker: The 11th century sage Al Gazali, perhaps the most influential Muslim since Muhammad, described a woman's duties this way. “She should stay at home and get on with her spinning. She should not go out often. She must not be well informed. Nor must she be communicative with her neighbours and only visit them when absolutely necessary. She should take care of her husband and respect him in his presence and in his absence and seek to satisfy him in everything. She must not leave the house without his permission. And if given his permission, she must leave surreptitiously. She should put on old clothes and take the deserted streets and alleys, avoid markets, make sure that a stranger does not hear her voice or recognize her. She must not speak to a friend of her husband’s even in need. Her sole worry should be her virtue, her home, as well as her prayers and her fast. If a friend of her husband calls when the latter is absent, she must not open the door nor reply to him in order to safeguard her and her husband's honour. She should accept what her husband gives her, as sufficient sexual needs at any moment. She should be clean, ready to satisfy her husband's sexual needs at any moment”.

Think about the millions of women who even now are forced to wear the veil. Who are forced into these forced marriages with men they have never met. And you will realize that these kinds of religious opinions have consequences.

The net effect of religion, especially in the Abrahamic tradition, has been to demonize female sexuality and portray women as morally and intellectually inferior to men. I mean, every woman it is imagined holds the honour of the men in her lives for ransom and is liable to tarnish it with a glance or destroy it outright through sexual indiscretion.

Old Testament: Deuteronomy 22 28-29 : If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married, and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay her father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.

In this context, rape is in fact a crime that one man commits against another man. It's the woman’s only shame's vehicle and often culpably acquiescent being, all blandishments and guile and winking treachery.

Speaker: I've been to all three axes. I think I'm the only writer who can say that you're not allowed to sentence a woman who is a virgin to death, even though she may have committed in the eyes of the Mullahs a capital crime, perhaps by showing her hair too often or her limbs. She can't be sentenced to death.

But their religious law means she can be raped by the military and she's not a virgin anymore. Then they can kill her.

‘Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law’ used to be considered the motto of Satanism as I recall.

Divine permission given to people who think they have God on their side enables actions that a morally normal unbeliever would not contemplate.

Speaker: In the Old Testament, in Deuteronomy 22, God says: ‘that if a woman doesn't scream loudly enough while being raped, she should be stoned to death as an accessory to her own defilement.’

It's obvious that the alpha male God of this book reflects the fears, the ignorance, the territorialism, the arrogance of the patriarchal Israelites who wanted to preserve their property, including their wives and their slaves.

The God the Israelites invented is an abusive husband who controls his wife with threats and violence. It's in the Bible.

God is a misogynist. Look at Jeremiah 13, for example. When the Israelites were asking, "Why are the Babylonians invading, killing and raping their women?"

God replied, "Here's why. It's for the greatness of your iniquity that your skirts are lifted up and you are raped or violated." As some verses say. “because you have forgotten me and trusted in lies, I myself will lift up your skirts over your face”.

God by his own words is a rapist. Literally or metaphorically, this is really a horrible thing to say.

Isaiah wrote, "The Lord will afflict with scabs the heads of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will lay bare their secret parts."

This is sexual harassment in the Bible in order to humiliate and control women.

What do you think about men who boast about groping women? What do you think about that? Is that praiseworthy?

God is not pro-life. Old testament – Hosea 13:16 : because she has rebelled against her God, their little ones shall be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women ripped open.

God said, "May the Lord cause you to become a curse among your people when he makes your wombs miscarry."

God is cannibalistic. “I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh. They will be drunk on their own blood. If you disobey me, you shall eat the flesh of your sons and you shall eat the flesh of your daughters.”

There's no escaping the view in the Bible and the Quran that women have been put on earth to serve men, to keep their homes in order, and to be incubators of sons.

So, I think this is a fact that really cannot be disputed. If we ever achieve a global civilization that truly values and honours the rights and capabilities of women, it will not be because we paid more attention to our Holy Books.

End.

Comments Wivine :

It is a worldwide problem for women, and it is important to point it out because we are heading towards a multipolar, global civilisation on one side and on the other side we need to do a step forward on the spiritual and moral level worldwide. This is only possible when women can take up their Holy, Spiritual destination as an equally, complementary partner of men. Not through copying male attitudes, jobs, vocabulary and so on, but as an equal partner, different and complementary.

Men and women were not created the same and that was done on purpose. It takes two polarities - + and – to create electricity. No physician will say that the positive pole is better than the negative pole. It takes two different poles to create a third. Be it on the physical or the spiritual level.

God is not a man. God has both polarities in Him and does not look like a human. Jesus was a man, yes, but if he would be a woman in those days, in such a macho culture, he would not have been able to leave the house, to travel, to do all things he did. Who would have listened to him?

Everybody is discussing his skin colour. Was he white, was he black, was he yellow or green? Tall or small? How was his haircut? What colour?

But nobody asks, why he came as a man and not as a woman? Therefor I ask you – would he have been heard, followed or probably stoned in those days in Judea as a woman?

The so-called liberation of women started in the ‘West’, in the 20^th century thanks to science. Yes ! But the biggest change came after World War 2 (1940-1945) where men were killed by the millions worldwide in the war and the women had to take over the factories and so many male jobs to survive and sustain the war and the time after the war. From that moment on, there was no way back anymore in the West.

The mentality changed, new laws came along to protect women, they received civil rights like allowing to vote for example. It was not achieved in one year. It took some time. There are, since a while, women in politics which helped a lot to create new laws to protect them.

Only organised religion, with their Holy Books, were holding them down and still do.

It was and still is a dilemma for many women to keep their faith or not, because all this Holy Books contain also a lot of spiritual truths, higher wisdom. How to keep your faith on one side while you are denying some religious laws on the other side that are keeping you down in your daily life?

The same problem occurs with science. Science is very materialistic and many of their findings are taking down a lot of the magic, the mysterious from what you believe and how you experience your personal communication with God or Jesus or some other Deity or Higher Spiritual Beings.

What will you do? Will you stop to believe in a wonderful, lovely God, in a nice attractive afterlife for your soul? Will you throw your Faith away, will you throw science away?

Or will you adjust your beliefs without throwing the baby out with the bathwater? Because that is the correct attitude of someone who’s soul grows through a “living faith”. That is what is expected from all of us. To adjust, to expand our ‘Faith’ to grow and let go what no longer serves or never served us.

For those who don’t know or don’t remember.

For those who do not know or do not remember. There are three Children of Paradise, relatives of Christ, incarnated in this 21st century. Of the three incarnated Children of Paradise, born between 2015 and 2021, only one is a boy; the other two are girls. They are working with Jesus since a while, not in the physical third dimension, but in the fourth dimension.

The girls will not be stoned or raped, much less kept ignorant. Their tasks will not take place on a physical level. None of the three will stand out. They will not host talk shows, post videos on YouTube, establish a new organized religion, or become gurus with followers. They will not become lawyers or political leaders. They will be ordinary people, leading a normal life like the masses among us. They are here to experience what it means to be human, just like each of us, because they need that experience for their distant, future Higher Spiritual leadership roles.

There is no need for them to create another religion.

Remember: God is within you and you can talk to God – your Father-Mother God, this huge ‘Omniscient Consciousness’ that created everything by thought, which pervades all creation and left a spark of him-her, a little light within you to enable you to make contact.

No need for middlemen or middlewomen. That is the past.

Things must change and the change is speeding up globally.

A cleaning has been done the last 15 years of all that dwells in the 4rth dimension that did not align with Gods universal laws. New spiritual forces replaced their ancient dark grid as we used to call it. Darkness is losing its grip. I can feel it; I can see it. People come to me to confirm it. But an animal that is cornered can resist very aggressively.

It takes time, we are not patient enough. The changes will be more visible during the next 20 years. One day at the time. We are on the right track. Never give up because we will win this fight. Women and men together, side by side.

Therefore, be happy and make others happy.
