Who are more moral? Men or women?

I am not an atheist but am a man who, thanks to apotheosis, believes himself to have high morals. Perhaps even superior to women.

I will take the Jewish view of Eden as man’s elevation as opposed to the Christian view that Eden was man’s fall. I do this because the Jewish view was the initial view of their scriptures. I give their view more authority than I do to Christianity. That Jewish view was later reversed by Christianity. Why Christianity did this is not clear.

For this mental exercise, I say women are more moral than men. I take this view because teaching a topic is the best way to learn it, and that most of the child rearing/teaching in that day was done by women. Women then, teaching children their first morals, would also teach themselves morals faster than what men would.

I do not read scriptures literally but will use the literal view and my logic trail and progression through Eden as if I do.

Eve was first to eat of the tree of knowledge, and as scriptures states, became as God. That is, she developed the same moral sense as God. She then recognized that instead of leaving Adam to follow God’s instruction to not eat, she chose, with her new wisdom, to have Adam also eat of the tree of knowledge. Thus both were elevated to having a moral sense.

Is the Jewish view the correct one?

Who should lead mankind in religious and political thinking?

Who are more moral? Men or women?

In my opinion, Neither men nor women are suprior to each other. Both contribute equally to our population. (Without either men or women we won't be able to reproduce). I am an athiest, so that's my point of view. We are all born with equal rights, and gender doesn't affect anything, does it?

Err... so you would be alive without men?! Were you immaculately concieved? And what does this have to do with morality anyway?

And as for the OP... GIA you seem to be implying the existence of some kind of objective morality. Pray tell, what would you say is objectively good and objectively evil? And who is this moral dictator who sets the objective standard? I am immensely curious.

without men you won't be alive either. God did create man first, but there's no PROOF. so we're still equal.

Hi Corwin, actually I was a test tube baby! ( not ) My poor attempt at humour. No worries, I won't give up my day job! My comment to Great, was meant to be, yet another attempt at humour. (whew, tough crowd!)
