BIBLE DEGRADEs THEIR SEX
Remarkable Statements by Promi-
nent Women In Answer to Ques-
lions by Mrs. Stanton,

CHICAGO, March 21-A special to
the Tribune from New York says: In
the second volume Of the "Woman's
Bible" edited by Elizabeth Cady Stan
ton. which has just come from the
press, there are some remarkable state
ments by prominent women.
Most of them declare that the Bible
has degraded their sex. They allude
to Scriptural passages which they claim
are particularly offensive to true Wom-
anhood. These letters were written in
response to two questions by Mrs.
Stanton
Have the teachings of the Bible
advanced or retarded the emancipation
of Women?r
.2-Have they dignified or degraded
the mothers of the race?
Josephine K Henry sayss sHIns Genesis
the Bible strikes the, keynote Of wom-
ans inferiority and subjection; and the
note rings true through every accept
ed and rejected book which has ever
constituted the Bible. The Bible esti-
mate of woman is summed up in the
words of the president of leading
theological seminary when he exclaim-
ed to his students: MY Bible COM
mands the subsection Of women for
ever 1"
Phoebe A Hanaford says: "I believe
that the Bible needs explanation and
comment Of many statements therein
which tend to degrade woman. Christ
taught the equality of the sexes and
Paul said: There Is neither male nor
female; We are all one in Jesus Christ
Hence I welcome the 'Woman's Bible
as a needed commentary in regard to
woman's position"
Matilda Joslyn Gage says ''The
Christian theory Of, the sacredness Of
the Bible has been at the cost of the
worlds civilization"
Miss Frances E. Willard, in her let
ter, said: 1.-THE nations who treat
women with the most consideration are
the most Christian, nations; the coun-
tries which have open TO them all the
opportunities for education which men
possess are Christian countries; where
ever we find an iffstithtion for the
care and the comfort Of defective or
the dependent classes, that institution
was founded by men and women who
were Christians by6 heredity and by
training"
