Old Testament stuff. New Testament does not condemn or blame women as the generators of sin--except for Paul, that judgmental misogynist--indeed, Jesus considered Mary as one of the Apostles, although the Roman Catholic (male) hierarchy has done it's best to obscure that nugget.

Yes, I know this. Never have been a fan of Paul. Early church fathers spent too much time sitting on pillars in the desert or having fun and then renouncing the riotous life. The presence of women causes so much trouble.

Michelle Paul, who initially had opposed Jesus, later was marketing the Jesus movement to non-Jews. He relied heavily on women in this effort.

Still not a fan, but nice to know. Thanks. I can understand how women would be attracted.
