Go ahead. Share with us how women have EVERY OPPORTUNITY in your church...how women have ALL the same opportunities as MEN in your community (it is NOT your fault if they do not, but are you standing up for their RIGHT to have ACCESS to every opportunity?)
Generally speaking, it doe not mean EVERY man, but overall as an established INSTITUTION, the religious right refuses to allow women CERTAIN opportunities and demands they follow a certain code as outlined in the bible.
It is the attitude of trumpeters and other misogynistic people who DEMONIZE themselves..and when others SUPPORT trumpeters' attitudes and refuse to call them out--They are not only demonized--THEY ARE GUILTY in the EYES of GOD..
First, you need to demonstrate how "Equal" means "the same". There are things that women can do that I can't do. It doesn't mean I'm lesser than them.
No, we do not have to be the same to be equal. That's my point. But God has determined certain requirements to do certain things. It wasn't defined by some random dude that felt threatened by women.

STILL waiting for an explanation of how "equal" means "the same".
Try again, Vizio, it IS there. The difference is between "equipped" (biologically) and "decided." When there have to be RULES made to keep one or the other from performing a function it becomes "unequal."
Ah, I see this was covered well by Zthatzmanz and you fall back on the "God decided, not men" argument that is precisely what the OP is about and it is a LIE.
