Christian Consent

Christianity carries with it some inbuilt privileges. As I alluded to in my last post, consent in marriage is ignored by some groups. Hindu and Islamic fathers can pick husbands for their daughters and the girls do not have the ultimate right to refuse. When the anglo-saxons were being evangelized, the pastors reeducated them on this. The young women have to have a final veto.  Among other scriptures they must have considered, Genesis has Rebekah being asked "Will you go with this man?"
