Hey C. T.! I appreciate you taking the time to read and understand the blogpost. For 1 Timothy 2.15, I tend to think that it has to do with Paul responding to concerns about cultic practices in Ephesus where it was the common practice to go to the temple and ask Artemis for deliverance from dying in childbirth. I talk a bit about it in this post: https://itsjoshissa.medium.com/whom-the-spirit-wills-6185ea1233d0
Whatever it does mean, however, I don’t think it means that women must become mothers. At minimum Paul is saying something along the lines of trust that God will take care of you.
