Since the dawn of time, women have been fighting for equality. Although it has been a difficult battle, women have come a long way. They are able to vote and make their voices heard. They have careers. Women are becoming more independent and liberated each and every day. Feminism is not just a word anymore; it's a way of life.
Although women have established a higher status than they used to enjoy, there is a strong barrier blocking their path, and that is the Bible. In Genesis, the story of Adam and Eve gives strong support for the wicked nature of women. It is because of Eve that Adam eats the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge, and it is because of Eve that they get banished from the Garden of Eden. However, if one takes a closer look, it becomes clear that this is just a matter of perception.
