I found Agrippa's view on female salvation to be unusual. The very thing that he is arguing is odd in and of itself. In saying that woman is not to blame for causing sin to enter the world he places all of the blame on Man. I have heard this argument before but never so bluntly. He simply states it is mans fault and man alone. Poor Eve was just an innocent bystander. He proceeded to link this to the passing of original sin through a man instead of through woman. If original sin were passed through woman than Christ would have bee affected by it and therefor not sinless. As interesting as this was in it peculiarity, I don't think God would be happy with the battle of the sexes these men were raging.
P.S. I commented on Brannen's
Yeah, it's interesting how there is almost a promotion of division.
