I'll ask again: Is there a point you are trying to make, Gus?

Are you looking for a discussion about Christianity and the roles of men and women within the confines of that religion? Or are you just christian bashing?

Regardless of the point, I think it's a valid question.

We have numerous threads asking the same questions of Islam. I think there are even a few for Judaism.

Religion plays a large part of many peoples lives and is a huge issue in politics. We claim that it guides a person in the decisions they make.

So what wrong with looking at and debating it's points?

I have no problem discussing it, I was just trying to find out what Gus' motives are.

something funny happened on the way to the slave market...

what Hillary has done in this campaign has been to shatter some of the residual crap from attitudes that come out of the old book. Women are no longer looking for men to lead them, but what's more telling is that we men aren't either. We will now feel more comfortable looking for leader with qualities and stuff instead of balls and fluff.

It is un-Biblical to allow a woman to have authority over a man.

So says the Apostle Paul.

Not so much, no. The Bible is the location of many archaic and horrific descriptions of abuse towards women.

Wow, after reading some of those passages I'd be ashamed to be a Christian! I'd get my fat keister over to a secular humanist web site and start reading-up ASAP!
