Is it hard to be a modern, empowered woman who loves and follows the bible? [Spirituality & Religion]

The bible is [i]very[/i] clear about what a woman's place is in the hierarchy of the home and the church.

Is it difficult for a bible believing christian woman to reconcile the teachings of the bible with the modern notion that women should be equal to men in all things?

Yeah, as a feminist atheist, that makes sense to me. In my world, I can justify equality simply because god isn't real, and because god isn't real, there's no reason for me not to be equal. Works like a circle, but I think if there's one thing religion is good at is staying relevant and the only way to do this is by bending the rules as time goes on. Now we have gay christians 'cause Christianity eventually is cool with everything that's hip.

Yeah. It's not problem if you don't take the bible seriously but it seems awfully hard to be a feminist and christian.

@Pikachu absolutely agree
