Traditional Christian beliefs, largely based on the writings of Paul and the pseudo-Pauline epistles, as well as the example of the Old Testament, are that women are subject to men and should obey their husbands. The biblical rule was that slaves should obey their masters and, since slaves have long been more likely to be black, this has led to the view that black people are not equal to whites.
All this has changed, sometimes with the support of the churches, and sometimes in spite of their opposition. Most people who claim to be Christians now regard women as having equal rights to men, except in some instances for the right to hold leadership roles in church, and consider all races to be equal.
