Screen 27 of 28

God as a female, so they call her Goddess女神 — a woman treated as divine. Again, I only half way agree with them, because I believe God is neither gender, but rather a Spirit with both the female and the male characteristics. God has to contain both, or God could not have created both genders in his/her image.

If you would study the scriptures yourself and not just take what your church says as truth, you will discover that the species of man was made in God's image, and the first man was both male and female. God withdrew the female out of the man and created the woman. Then God rejoined them through marriage. The woman was never in subjection to her husband until after the fall of mankind and the Earth was cursed. The woman being in subjection to her husband was a curse as was painful child bearing. It wasn't originally meant to be this way. Thanks to the cross and the resurrection of Christ, we have been delivered from the curse and the Old Testament laws that placed people in religious bondage捆绑 — being tied or restrained.
