Even with that version if a woman is supposed to be in agreement with a man...well, someone has to first make a decision in order for someone else to agree with it. It's still telling a woman to do as the man says. Also there are the versus prior to that. Women are instructed to dress simply and avoid fancy hair, clothes, and jewelry. Most churches do not make their females do that. Most christian women don't do that at all. At any rate, even if the translation isn't perfect it just goes to show how flawed the bible is and how you simply can't trust what it says. If a god can't make sure his message is delivered to 100% of everyone in a clear and concise way...then why worship him? I'm supposed to put my soul in the hands of a diety that can't master human language? Even though, some mistakes can't be pushed aside by the translation excuses.

Of course basically any bible you pick up and read will sound similar to what i posted. If one wants to argue that entire sections of scripture are completely the opposite of what's in millions of bibles then...exactly. Everything american christians have based their lives on for 500 years is an enormous mistake. People learned, taught, and lived false scripture.

I think that anyways since I believe the entire thing is nonsense. There's an interesting comparison there, though. On one hand you have billions of people (over the past few thousand years) that based their faith off of flawed scripture (I would assume other languages also have translation errors. I would also assume that before people had personal bibles that clergy would interpret things differently before "teaching" the bible) and on the other hand you have billions of people that were born, lived, and died while never hearing anything about christianity, jesus, jews, islam, or any of that. Just recently in the news we had a tribe of people in brazil that never had outside contact (supposedly). But, we know this is true as little as a few hundred years ago. All the people who lived and died in the americas before white men invaded. All the people on the pacific islands. All the people everywhere else starting from the second after jesus' death.

So who has a better chance to enter heaven? A man who follows false doctrine instead of true scripture or a man who never had the opportunity to do either?
