The Christian view on feminism is completely non-biased. In any situation where someone encounters a feminist the must address biblical concepts and not attack the persons beliefs. Throughout the bible we see very active women of God, women that god does not discriminate against. Take Deborah for example, she is one character used in the bible to create a revolution and a complete change of heart in God’s people. One can see throughout the Bible examples of men failing to step up and lead God’s people correctly but rather lead them down the wrong path. Also, God often times used women to encourage their husbands as leaders down the right path. Take Moses’ wife for example. She supported him even when the people didn’t.

One must understand that God made men and women for completely different purposes but equal ones. Men were created as almost caretakers of the throne or little kings and also as warriors and caretakers. Women were responsible for nurturing, relationships, and as being a warrior. Both roles are equal and are not completely out of the question for being reversed. In some instances men are better nurturers than women while the woman can be a better leader than the man. God gives different gifts to different genders.

Both genders are dependant on the other for success in going about life. They complete each other. While men are in charge of the household and women are suppose to submit to the man’s decision it does not show inequality but rather a relief of stress. Because women are not charged with the final decision on big issues but rather have a say they will not be held accountable to the decisions made when the meet God face to face. The stress of the family is meant to be a larger burden for the man as God has appointed man for the safety and protection of his wife and offspring. Women are once again there to complete man and come along side to support him in his decisions and guide him in the right direction that best represents the family and God.

In addressing feminism, one cans see that it should not exist if men will stop degrading women and women will stop subjecting themselves throughout public.
