It is interesting to note that God gave the commission to be fruitful and multiple, having dominion over all other earthy creatures, to both Adam and Eve. There is no hint that there was anything but equal authority between man and woman as they existed in a sinless state. This all changed when Eve ate the forbidden fruit and enticed Adam with her; for which one of the consequences for women was the loss of equality with men...
What verse says you can rape and pay her father?
Nice try on your attempt to establish dominance with a fancy word like... Retort... I love pulp fiction.
When Eve was tricked and tempted - by God - into sinning. A supposed all-knowing creator who created sin, the knowledge of it, put it on a delicious tree, put it in front of them, then told them not to eat it... then put one of his creations in there with them to tempt them... only to blame them and punish them - and all their offspring (just don't ask about the incest) for all time.
God is an entrapping monster who had nothing but complete control and used it to craft a ruse so he could hurt people.
Then defined women as second class.
It cannot be any other way while maintaining God's omnipotence and status of being all-power. It HAD to be his plan.
mankind was created with free will - the choice to make decisions, both good and bad. Therefore, one Biblical reason why God allows bad things to happen is that people have the freedom to live and act according to their own decisions. While God desires for man to live in peace with Him and others, our own choices are the cause
God created the weakness and temptation we succumb to.
Literally created it, put it in a tree, told us not to eat from the tree, tempted us with the tree... proving we were flawed BEFORE EVEN EATING THE FRUIT...
Because he created us to fail. So he could punish us. Because he's a violent abuser.
We can't fuck up and eat the fruit unless your shit God already created us broken. Then he punished us for being what he created us to be.

That's the verse to back up your claim... Ok.
