Wanna bet the FFL does not mention E.C. Stanton's "The Women's Bible"?

[BrklynLiberal]

"When we consider that women have been treated as property it is degrading to women that we should treat our children as property to be disposed of as we see fit." However, she had some very strange biblical views. She believed that the Bible was partial to men. She wrote a book called The Women's Bible which talked about sexism in the Bible. This outraged many of her colleagues and caused them to betray her. When she died in 1902, she was almost shunned from the Woman's Rights community. Elizabeth Cady Stanton never lived to see women get the right to vote, but her work for the Woman's Rights Movement helped women get the right to vote.

1. I've heard of Stanton's The Women's Bible

But what is the FFL?

[DELUSIONAL]

3. Feminist for life -- Judge Robert's ding bat wife is a member

of that up is down, blue is green, black is white, no is yes -- group.

[DELUSIONAL]

2. This is the only bible I have in my home

I got it years ago when it was "rediscovered" and reprinted.

Some sections of the bible she felt were obscene -- and she's right. Mike Malloy read one of the passages that Stanton objected to (I doubt he's read Stanton -- but it is "those" passages are obvious).

It is really important to know our feminist history -- there were many different personalities who were united in the fight for women's equality.

Thanks for the reminder -- Plus we still have a hell of a long way to go.

Today the fact that women have any rights at all is due to the hard work of our foremothers -- and forefathers. I really get angry when today's young women who have non traditional jobs that had the old rules of women's place in society prevails -- these women would NOT be getting paid for -- play their anti-feminists games.

We've come a long way -- but the journey is not over, nor will it ever be over.
