Genesis 3:16
“Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee”
Um, can I get a hell no?! If there was ever a case for the empowerment of women I’m pretty sure this is it! So what if Eve ate the fruit? She ate it and knew the truth! Would God rather have her live a life of nothing but fantasy and wonderment? I read this verse when I was very young and was questioning the concept of religion. It was on this day that I all but made my mind that God would not give me more hardships than a man and would certainly not want anyone to rule OVER me.
I am so glad that Aaron hasn’t read this verse in the Bible because then we would really be in trouble. He went to 8 years of Bible school but I’m pretty sure they skipped or altered this chapter! I don’t regret Eve eating that apple and I think that her dumb ass husband shouldn’t have eaten the apple. He did right by listening to her but that just goes to show that most men don’t think for themselves and in the end we always end up screwing them in some way!!
Don’t forget that it was ONLY AFTER Eve at the apple that they were introduced to the Devil and all the fun things in life! Come on now, they didn’t have sex until after they ate the freaking apple!!
Can I get a HELL YES AND AMEN?!!!
