You'll have to forgive ol' intojoyboy. He's too high strung. He can't control his verbage and gets banned a bit. He's also a half breed himself, I think.
Feminism Ruined Women

This is a piece of garbage.
Written by a female rabbi accusing GOD of making Eve the first "Me Too" victim.
The time has come for me to step forward, too. It’s time we all acknowledge an overwhelmingly powerful source of shame and silence — in the bible.
The story that begins the bible, the first one that we learn in Sunday school, the founding story of man and woman upheld for thousands of years by Judeo-Christian religion, is actually the story of the first sexual assault of a woman. The woman’s name is Eve. And the perpetrator? God.
I want you to think about this. Here is a young, beautiful, intelligent, naked woman living in a state of Grace. She’s hungry, so she does the most natural thing in the world and eats a piece of fruit. For following her instincts, trusting herself, and nourishing her body, she is punished. Her punishment? She will never again feel safe in her nakedness. She will never again love her body. She will never again know her body as a place of sacred sovereignty.
“What have you done?” He God thunders. Eve wants to defend herself, but she is too ashamed to speak. Eve, our first mother whose name means the “mother of all living things,” is silenced, much the way the “patients” of Dr. Nassar were.
This God, this man-made figurehead of the patriarchy, is not my God. He is a fiction, a man-made myth, but yet one so powerful that it’s poisoned and limited our notion of what GOD, the truly divine, is and can be, especially for women. It’s time for the one truly loving, compassionate God — the God who wants nothing more than to see Eve to rise and resume her place as “the Mother of All Living Things — to make herself seen, known, and available to all of us. The God I believe in is all loving. God is a Divine source of life and healing, not shame and abandonment.
I know that at this very moment in time, Eve is with us and she is awed and proud that we are finally finding our voices, one at time, and then hundreds, and thousands at a time. She, who was lost to us so long ago, is actually here with us now, marching in the streets, testifying, raising her voice, at last.
Just listen…
Eve, our blessed mother, is saying, “#Metoo.”

I agree, Tambora, that essay is pure nonsense. This woman is a "rabbi"? I didn't know women could be Jewish rabbi's. But, anyhow, the Bible is clear that God told Adam and Eve they can eat FROM ANY GREEN PLANT except for one tree.
Genesis 1:29-30
29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so.
I know!
How stupid to say that Eve ate because she was hungry.
I hate the women's movement and wish they would just shut their stupid pie holes.
They can never make up their minds if they want to run with men or be the perpetual victim of men.
Heck, I'm a woman and I'm sick to death of hearing them groan about every little thing.
i'd say a False form of Feminism ruined women. Authentic feminism, as God intended it, is a good thing.

Feminism is about women showing they can be as good a man as a man. Now we know it leads to women not being as good a woman as a man.
This is not meant as a slight to women being women, but to show the hypocrisy of the movement.
