"M. GENE
God ain‟t meant for Eve to have to mind no Adam. It‟s spose to be the other way „round. Only thing is man ran faster and got to God‟s book „fore woman could. She was no doubt pregnant at the time and could only get so far. So man grabbed the book and changed the scripture to fit him. That‟s why some of the good book don‟t make no sense. Man been meddlin in it. But God really mean for women to lead. Just think on it, we more like God than any man. We love easier, more patient, long sufferin and we the creators. We give men life. That there is plum proof we more like God and he‟s given me eyes to see it. And I sho aim to spread it as gospel. Far and wide, wide and free. And you do the same my daughters. Go and be like god…for you all our goddesses.
The women applaud and disperse."
