         <description><![CDATA[<div>education was based off the Bible.<br>protestant women were more educated than catholic women because of their beliefs and rituals.Bible studies had different effects on the position of women, depending on which scripture was studied, and how it was interpreted. In some cases, it benefited women, when they found passages suggesting women were equal to men in the presence of God.Schooling for girls and literacy for women consequently and gradually became more common. For example, the Swedish Church Ordinance of 1571 mandated the education of girls along with the boys.The women's ideal promoted during the Reformation was the women were to be silent and obedient wives and mothers, devoted to household tasks and childcare. The purpose of women's education was the development of an accepted concept of marriage and training in domestic skills. Women were taught how to look after children, care for their homes, make clothing for her family, and tend livestock.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>
