@basedbagel @UncleIroh Ok, you're clearly lacking in self-awareness and my original diagnosis of level 4 thinking is dead on. This confirms it.
That's not a straw man at all. You're saying that YOUR understanding of the Bible is correct (or maybe, your group's). Other groups say you're the one twisting the scripture. How do you determine who's right? An epistemology answering the question would be level 5 thinking.
Lacking awareness of this problem is really clear in what you're saying.

> Christianity is not inherently patriarchal
That has to be THE dumbest thing you've said so far.
God the Father and His son Christ are the definitive model of rule by the patriarch.
> early feminists made reference to a lot of NT scripture to justify their position.
Early feminists also openly worshipped Satan and rewrote the first few books of the bible.

This is you last chance to address my points:
1. Christianity is a patriarchal religion so it couldn't have caused feminism. Feminism = Satanism. NOT Christianity
2. Just because people twist/misinterpret the bible doesn't mean we should scrap it all.
It's funny you prove my point without realizing. Moral relitivsm can't work because people will just make up their own subjective morality to suit their current goals (like women) leading to chaos

@basedbagel @UncleIroh You accuse me of not arguing in bad faith, but then turn around and say I'm arguing for moral relativism.
I've addressed your points. You're just so stuck in one mode you're not seeing how what I said addresses them. Christianity is not inherently patriarchal: early feminists made reference to a lot of NT scripture to justify their position.
Your entire argument rests on "my interpretation is correct and their's isn't." This is why Christianity is such a mess.

@UncleIroh @basedbagel You're missing the point. The point is that there's as many interpretations of Christianity as there are Christians. If Christianity was INHERENTLY patriarchal, there couldn't even be a feminist or liberal Christianity. But there clearly is, so it's not inherently patriarchal, just...historically so.
