I will have to dig into it a bit, no expert either.
Interestingly, the christian bible talked originally about God taking a half (side) of Adam and making Eva to his (equal) partner. But somehow it got co-opted with translations into "the rib", subordinating the position of a woman to the man henceforth.
All these are interesting things to learn, but also a reason why I don't accept religious leaders of any kind.
A whole another topic is how an individual person lives and what moral guidance does he stick to, regardless of their religious scripts.
And so I'm not ready to condemn a Muslim or a Christian or a Jew -- as long as they're not following their "torahs" literally in trying to subordinate every living human to their needs, or keeping women as slaves etc. If they do, I want nothing with such people.
