In contrast to Complementarianism is the more modern position termed "Christian" [[Egalitarianism]], which, among other things,  seeks to use the essential spiritual equality which all believers enjoy (Gal. 3:28) to negate positional/functional distinctions between men and women. While some egalitarians profess to hold the Bible as the wholly inspired word of God, they tend to rely on a much less literal approach in interpreting key verses. Primary arguments typically used by egalitarianism are also used by many pro[[homosexual]] polemicists in regards to [[homosexuality and biblical interpretation]],<ref>http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/Homosex_versus_the_Bible.html#Corinthians</ref> though more conservative egalitarians distance themselves from homosexuality.<ref>[[homosexuality]].
