Every summer my parents sent me to a different Christian Bible School.

Every one of them had different “rules” especially about the treatment of women. The last one was evangelical and the worst in regards to humanity.

I realized each one was making up its own rules. That it’s a man’s religion. Nothing in it for women.

When you start hearing anyone not buying into it goes to hell???? That’s bullshit.
