I’m speaking more to the fact that the world was very mysogonistic and oppressive of women in general back then, so when the Bible says something like that it can likely be attributed to the men writing it sort of “filling in the blank spaces” as it were and that it was never god telling them to be that way. I wasn’t making a statement on the science of the Bible. Although the inaccuracies there could likely be attributed to they lack of scientific understanding at the time, therefor they are only writing their own interpretation of what they were told and since they didn’t understand it in the first place it’s no brain buster that they would get some of it wrong.

I’m not saying people back then were stupid, just uninformed/ignorant. Imagine if some professor gave you an incredibly detailed seminar on a subject that was very deep and convoluted and you knew nothing about it prior yet you had to immediately write a paper on it just based on what they said. You’d obviously cock it up, that doesn’t make you stupid.
