See, the bolded portion is the fundamental problem at hand. You guys just are not reading my words for their clear and obvious intent. You are twisting them into the parody that you think they are because you can't enter a discussion on this issue with a man without bringing preconceptions of how I will act and speak. I DON'T THINK THAT FEMINISM HAS BROUGHT MORE HARM THAN GOOD!!!! I think that some women have taken bastardized interpretations of feminism and morphed them into a radical version that has done far more harm than good.

We have to really work at generating an equal, kind regard for a harm doer. It doesn't come naturally or easily. One has to train to do so. But this kind of compassion arises as a side effect of a high degree of realization by enlightened masters of awareness. It is possible for a human being to develop immeasurable compassion and equanimity. HH the Dalai Lama is an example. He doesn't hate the Chinese even though they murdered millions of Tibetans, and descrated Buddhist monasteries thoughout Tibet.

Show me an example of a 'bastardized radical interpretation of feminism' that has done more harm than good. I agree that Hillary made mistakes in her campaign. One mistake she made was in emphasizing herself as a woman candidate. http://guerillawomentn.blogspot.com/...-feminist.html Obama would not be having the nomination today if he emphasized his 'blackness'. Yes. I think Clinton failure to win the nomination lies in playing up feminism. Would you have voted for her? Last edited by wind; 08-28-2008 at 02:25 PM.

Now that we are in the Bible, why don't we look at what love is? Notice how anger sets itself up in oposition to love. This is from the love chapter, 1 corinthians 13 Love is patient ---- Anger spurns you to thoughtless action Love is kind ---- Kindness is charitable while anger is hostile It does not envy ---- Anger thinks only of what it wants It does not boast ---- Anger is generally proud It is not proud ---- It is not rude ---- Anger often rude It is not self seeking ---- anger cares only for self It is not easily angered It keeps no record of wrongs ---- that would include rape and murder It does not delight in evil, that would mean that love would feel sorrow for those trapped in evil. I think you can see how anger sets itself up in oposition to love. Last edited by galaxguy; 08-28-2008 at 02:35 PM.

Washington University is giving Phyllis Schlafly an honorary doctorate. Let me run that by you again. Washington University, the distinguished 155-year-old seat of higher learning in St. Louis, is giving an honorary degree to Phyllis Schlafly--archfoe of the Equal Rights Amendment, the United Nations, Darwinism and other newfangled notions, and the promoter of innumerable crackpot far-right conspiracy theories who called the Bomb "a marvelous gift that was given to our country by a wise God." Her eighty-two years haven't mellowed her one bit: last year she blamed the Virginia Tech massacre on the English department; called intellectual men "liberal slobs"; advocated banning women from traditionally male occupations like construction, firefighting and the military; and defended men's property rights over their wives' vaginas ("by getting married, the woman has consented to sex, and I don't think you can call it rape").

It says that love is not easily angered, meaning that it can be angered. Scripture also teaches that God remembers the sins of those that are not saved but does not remember the sins of those that become saved. What do you think of that?
