text: why woman cannot teach according to bible? whats wrong in teaching!? bible, 1 timothy 2:12 "but i suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence."  ==========================  why does the bible subjugate woman? i mean why woman cannot teach. whats wrong in that. do you consider woman to be illetrate by nature or just because of gender? i have seen some woman who are more intelligent than man.   not to offend any christian. it is just a question. your thoughts please!? it is a fact the bible is man written and women are taught to be submissive!  i believe women are not taken seriously when preaching the word.  but, spreading the word is seems to be more acceptable! sad, but true!
