Mmm, scripture-twisting is always fun! Nutters who don't understand that the deity of their religion is saying that men and women are EQUAL but simply have different ROLES are really far too frequent, IMO. Different roles, not different equality. *smacks those nutters*
I was looking for the scripture to back that up. It's ephesians 5: 25-29 (essentially...there are a couple more to go with it).
"For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her 26 to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word.[b] 27 He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault. 28 In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man who loves his wife actually shows love for himself."
Guys who twist scripture tend to just read the part where it says "wives, submist to your husbands" and they point their finger and say HA! without understand what "submit" actually means. They think wrongly that it means they're the master and the woman's the slave. They neglect to read one or two lines further down that tell men to treat their wives with love and compassion and kindness, being ready to LAY DOWN THEIR LIVES for her. Foolish men!
