It's all the Bible, Old or New. Here's a New Testament quote sure to warm the hearts of women everywhere:
1 Timothy 2:11-15
Women should listen and learn quietly and submissively. I do not let women teach men or have authority over them. Let them listen quietly. For God made Adam first, and afterward he made Eve. And it was the woman, not Adam, who was deceived by Satan, and sin was the result. But women will be saved through childbearing and by continuing to live in faith, love, holiness, and modesty.
You can find examples of almost any immoral behaviour being condoned or outright commanded by God in the Bible. I know when I read it all the way through (skipping, to be sure, some of the "Jeremiah begat Woosifer, and Woosifer begat Tyler" chapters) it gave me a new perspective on "biblical morality".
