Are women better?

     At first I believed the author to have been sarcastic as he described a woman. He sounded as if he was saying what a woman wanted to hear as he described her beauty and perfection. However, as he continued there were moments where I saw some truth. The clique of Christians in China and various other countries is an older, widowed woman. So when he called women religious I could follow that. But then he completely cleared women of the original sin which I do not completely agree. He claimed it was Eve's ignorance that cleared her, but I have met men who are equally ignorant to some of the women I have spoken to. Finally, as a woman I do not want the weight of being called religious and holy compared to men. My sin is no better than any man's sin. Although this might have been meant as a compliment, to me it was a burden that I can not meet.
P.S. I commented on Collins!

  1. Yes! I forgot about that in my blog! It has been thought that this writing is satirical(?) in origin. If so, then wow. I'm really offended for all you women.

  2. I agree with you completely. The nerve and/or ignorance of this guy blows my mind.
