AMP1UL ItURSDAY EVENINCiALIGUsT NTNETErn MMI omm 7 i (r IDDllJi ri Editor Carrie Chapman Catt President of the National Suffrage Associaav tiori elle of th sevising Cotrinlittee 1 In the early nineties a group-of Ieading Suffragists decided that the "Christian Bible the Christian religion and the Christian ministry were the greatest obstacles to the spread of woman suffrage" a They concluded that' the Bible should be written from the womah's standpoint but they could not persuade any scholars to make the desired changes in the translation and so they were compelled to take the English version as it stood and say how it should have been written I (See preface to Bible) A committee of "women of liberal ideas" was selected and a portion of the Bible assigned to each one for revision Mrs Catt the president of the National Suffragist Association Miss Alice Blackwell now editor of the leading suffrage magazine Mrs Robert Ingersoll and other well-known suffragists were on this committee Mrs Elizabeth Cady Stanton-- acted as editor and the book was copyrighted in her name I The Divinity of Christ is denied and the statement madet "Plat thousands of people have lived since the time of Jesus as good as tender as loving as true as faithful as He" (Page 115) They say that "The widow should have been blamed and not commended for casting in her mite for self-develOpment -is a higher duty than self-sacrifice should be woman's motto (Volume 2 Page 131) "No institution in modern civilization is so tyrannical and so unjust to woman as is the Christian church" (Page 205) "Christianity feeds and fattens on the sentiment and ere dulty of wpmen" (Page 207) "Why should women obey a man "Our religion is the real source of women's disabilities" (Page 79) "The Episcopal Church is most demoralizing Whole con gregations of educated men and women day after day con teasing themselves miserable sinners" (Page 99) "The struggle of today among the advanced of our sex Is to regain what has been lost since the establishment of Christianity" (Volume 2 Page 22) "The civilization of Moslem Spain far surpassed that of Christian Europe" (Page 206) St Paul is spoken of as the most stultifying influence in the history of civilization and the following couplet is often quoted: "This doctrine of Jesus as set forth by Paul If believed in its fullness would ruin us all" The future woman suffragists are thus described: countless host of women twill move in majesty down the centuries These are the mothers oftthe coming race who have locked the door of the Temple of Faith and thrown the key --((aaee 1188)) done to'the world" by the keeping holy the seventh day (Page 68) The following quotations will be enough to show why the book was written and what it teaches: "That even the most enlightened nations are not iet out of barbarism is due to the teachings of the Bible" (Page 209) "The truth of the matter is that whatever progress woman has made in any department of effort she has accomplished in opposition to the so-called inspired 'Word of God' and this book has been of more injury to woman than any other book whicli has ever been mitten" (Page 203) "It does not reed a knowledge of Greek or Hebrew to show that the Bible degrades women We have made a fetich of the Bible long Bible has been the great block in the way of -civilization" (Preface Volume 2) "The-tible has been and will continue to be a stumbling- block in the way of the truest civilization" (Page 187) "The Bible always has been and is at present one of the greatest obstacles in the way or emancipation and advancement of the sex" (Page 201) "Women especially need enlightenment as to the true nature of the Bible Their religious nature is warped and twisted which fact is the greatest stumblingblock in the path of equal suffrage today" (Page 143) "Priestly power has done more to block woman's way to freedom than all other earthly influences combines" (Page Ill) The attacks on ministers are too numerous and long to quote but again and again women are urged to throw off these old superstitions to free themselves from the authority of the churches "to leave the pries mendicants who demand their devotion and their dollars" and to stop giving their time and money to support that man-made religion Christianity (See-title page) The first volume was issued in 1896 the second in 1898 and two more editions have been printed This Woman's Bible wab distributed as a suffrage tract In their comments the committee claims that the Bible is not inspired that Christ is not divine that the keeping of Sun- Jay has done harm and that the Christian church and the thristian ministry have been agents of evil The Woman's Suffrage Association is the only political body to hold its convention meetings on Sunday At the convention in Chicago in February 1920 the social reception to the delegates was held on Sunday evening In May 1920 the women who invaded Connecticut to try to force Gov HolcoMb to call a special session met in New York on Sunday and had a big 'Meal dinner on that day Thus the party today lives up theory "that much injury has been This is the teaching of National Suffrage leaders Are willing for women who hold these views to become political powers Ei NOTEOriginal copies of the Woman's Bible are on exhibition at Anti in our country 0 Ratification
