A Christian pastor in Texas has sparked outrage after saying that says a woman should have no say in how many kids she has. Jonathan Shelley, the senior pastor of Stedfast Baptist Church in Texas, made the comments in a sermon on Sunday, March 12.
In the sermon, Shelley said ""I heard an independent fundamental Baptist preacher, he's like, 'You know it is not right for me to tell my wife when we are going to have kids, you know I need to ask her permission, or ask when it's OK to start having kids."
Shelley mentions that he's the man so he makes all the decisions. He say's he's a man and a Fundamental Baptist so his wife has no say in household matters .
Shelley's comments have been met with criticism from many people. Some people have called for Shelley to be fired from his church, while others have said that his comments are harmful and divisive.
