Traditional view of Feminism sought to emancipate women in society and give them equal opportunities.
Modern view of Feminism believed that - men and women are different and have different roles, but women should have equal status to men.
What is Feminism?
Do you think we need feminism anymore?
Where do these ideas come from?
Christian attitudes tend to be based on the idea of women being child-bearers, wives and submissive companions to their husbands. The Christian approach is the Hebrew view of women as being created for the man, the property of the man, and in all sense secondary to the man.
Genesis 3:16
16 And he said to the woman, “I will increase your trouble in pregnancy and your pain in giving birth. In spite of this, you will still have desire for your husband, yet you will be subject to him.”

can have any role in the church but they can’t be
a priest or bishop.Because …

are equal• Only men can be priests because the
