This blog is meant to supplement my first blog (http://biblicalhightimes.blogspot.com/). So this will just be a running commentary on the posts from that. The main purpose for this blog is to be sober and develop some of the ideas that I come up with in the first blog. Disclaimer: this is not meant to be a negative thing again christianity or anything like that. I just want to try and read the bible from an objective point of view and discuss it logically.

Genesis 2
The term "helper" being used to refer to women is pretty interesting. This book that has shaped so much of our culture still carries with it the notion of women's subordination to men. That notion is clearly looked upon negatively in our society today, yet it is accepted in this holy book? That doesn't make sense. How could we make these moral exceptions just because this book is supposed to be holy? Doesn't it make more sense to read it and evaluate whether you agree with everything being said, than to just assume that everything it says is correct? It seems that way to me.
