You just can’t trust religious zealots to treat women right, says Jimmy Carter. But he’s condemning Christians, not Islamists. “[W]ith the writing of St. Paul,” he mused, “you can selectively take verses out of the Bible and you can justify women not being able to be priests and so forth, so the Catholic church and the Southern Baptist Convention and others quite often say, ‘Well women are not qualified to have an equal role in the service of God as men.’ And of course men all over the world take this as kind of a proof they can abuse their wives or pay less pay, you know?” Carter is rumored to be Baptist himself, but he never misses an opportunity for “friendly” fire when it comes to leftist social mores.
