Celebrating women!

[Tgo01]

It's time PC. It's time to celebrate women and all of the great things they have done for the human race. Sexists and people who only view women as sex objects are not welcome here.

Let's start with the original woman, without whom none of us would be here:

Yes that's right I'm talking about Eve! You show those men that only women can carry the burden of pregnancy!

[Tgo01]

Let's jump ahead a few thousand years:

This is Marie Curie. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first and only woman to win the Nobel prize twice, first female professor at the Sorbonne, and first woman entombed at the Paris Pantheon. She is perhaps most known for her discovery of radium.

She was just an overall badass.

Who can forget the woman who saved mankind from an evil AI?

I think you mean Lillith, Adam's first wife.

[Tgo01]

Adam had a wife before Eve?!

[Gelston]

Adam had a wife before Eve?!

Yes. According to the Jews.

[Stanley Burrell]

Yes. According to the Jews.

Yeah, in Jewish weddings, the, ummm, glass ... wine glass or other glassy object is stomped on to keep (The?) Lillith away. And then, also, I think for the bits and pieces of "True Blood" that I watched, Lilith was like the first vampire or something.

A++ post, fantastic read, will do business again.

This thread is already very educational! Let's celebrate some more!

[Astray]

Lilith was a free and independent woman or something like that?

And God was like, nah bitch. Then made Eve or something.

She is referred to mostly as the first female demon now too.

Wack.

Sacagawea.

When two white guys were like "No! We're not lost! We're not gonna ask for directions!" this American Indian chick was like "Bitches please! I'll show you around and translate for you on your thousand plus mile journey." All while caring for a newborn baby.

American Indian chick

Native American Woman, you fucking racist misogynist.

They've executed people for witchcraft for feeding birds.

Yeah lots of crazy stuff associated with the witchcraft accusation. My favorite was always the old throw em in the pond trick. If they sink, they were innocent.

They were lucky if they got that. The word of an 8 year old was good enough most of the time. Of course, they'd just torture the accused until they confessed.

The Inquisition was all about the expulsion of Muslims, Jews, and then the seizure of land. In places where the land of the condemned didn't go to the Church and/or State, accusations and executions were low-to-non existant.

Except in the US where in Salem, it was all about a land grab from widowed women pure and simple, had nothing to do with religion, everything to do about how many men had died and the estate went to the women and the fact the women mostly lived on one side of the town. I don't know what percentage went to the state but it wasn't 50% but a lot did go to male family members of one kind or another.

Wow, I wonder what the shipping fees were to mail land like that

She had an affair with a Nephilim behind Adams back....

After "Gods" punishment, Lilith vowed that she would tear apart Adam and Eves marriage.

She also saved the life of one of the two. One of them had a serious infection and the indians in that area used hot springs for medicinal purposes that had high sulphur content that she lead them to.

Not much because a land title was only a few pages and first class postage was pretty cheap in 1692.

You missed the part of my statement where I said it was purely about property seizure it seems.

[Alfster]

You'd probably have to define seizure for that to sink in

[~Rocktar~]

Except you added in expulsion of Jews and Muslims and the part about church and state getting the land, neither of which was part of the trials in America.

No, that was the original purpose. It expanded. I said ever reason it was used. You didn’t read.
