Eve's Feminism

"The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.  And the Lord God commanded the man, 'You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.'" [1]  This God told to Adam, before Eve was created. [2]

Then came the Serpent. To Eve, It said [3]:

“Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”

“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.

God never spoke to Eve directly.  Eve knew not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge from Adam and therefore what she knew was from hearsay, which is not always fully reliable.  At best, she could be viewed as naïve, but her naïveté was short-lived when she doubted Adam's words and was overcome by her desire to "be like God."

Wanting to be equal to God made Eve a feminist, the first in the world, who ought to be called the  queen of feminism. Even without a crown, she has many followers, including nuns for whom, or rather, for whose sins, an archbishop from Indianapolis, Indiana, and soon-to-be cardinal, has the utmost compassion. [4]

Feminism is a derivative of pride and is equally as sinful. According to "the Dominican priest, Father Juan Jose Gallego, an exorcist from the Archdiocese of Barcelona in Catalonia, Spain[,]" [5]  "pride is the sin the devil likes the most." [6] For someone who is supposed to serve God to have compassion for the deadly sin of pride and its derivatives, of which feminism is one, that Satan favors is unwise.  Equally unwise is for one to have compassion for those who unrepentantly embraces them.

Eve's feminism probably did not endear Eve to God.  God, drawing a sharp contrast to Eve, gave man a very special woman.  She is the Immaculate Conception, the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Mother of Jesus,  Whose obedience to God was, and is, absolute and Whose humility no woman before or since can match, and in Whose footsteps no feminist and secular nun (or woman) wants to follow. [7]

Therefore, it can be concluded that Eve, the feminist, has many daughters who are nuns who are just like her, who want to be like God, to perhaps blaze an alternative path to eternity (wherever that might be).  As luck would have it, or more precisely as fate would require it, they have to their benefit, many sons of Eve who are their sympathizers and who wield power presently from the highest echelons inside the Vatican.
