I don't really think of BDSM and Christianity in the same thought. They share a few common elements, but for me Christianity is what I make of it and not a set of rules that are unbendable/unbreakable. I don't attend church regularly and I've never fully read the bible. I think it was written during a time where some of the issues addressed do not apply to today's standards, thus modifications need to be made.

Sex was very taboo in those times and I don't really think that applies today, for one. Thus, I don't think BDSM if offensive to God considering there are some priests who walk around beating themselves. (Atleast, I'm pretty sure that's Christianity... I just remember seeing it on the history channel somewhere... forgive me if I'm wrong)

I'm sure it's very possible to live by the bible completely and 100% and be completely devout and all that jazz and still live a BDSM life style. It might take some reworking of the ideals of BDSM to fit within the Christian mold, but I do not doubt it's possible.

As for the bible stating that women are naturally subservient to men, I agree. However, I think it was developed in a patriarchal time when women were no more than property as Mishka said. Times have changed and this is another thing that I think needs to be able to bend. I also wonder what it's like in matriarchal societies with regards to subservience.

Just my two cents.
