What that sect did wad not about God. It was about power and control. So. Those women can throw their bibles in the garbage and abandon their faith, which is a valid choice, or.....and hear me out......they can start their own church and court other women into their interpretation of thr faith and begin walking Christianity away from male centered domination that shoves man made (because they're not scriptural) beliefs down everyone's throats back to what it was originally about. Connectedness. Lifting each other up.
They could not meekly accept being cast out of the club and then going without as though they were in the wrong and realize that God calls women to serve to. If God ordained Judith as a prophet, Ester as an ambassador, Thecla as a teacher, and all the others then it is not for men to subverting God's will because it makes their picks feel shriveled up.
