The Role of Women

She obviously has sound biblical beliefs, therefore I suspect she is contemplating Proverbs 2:10-12 as I am.

Thanks for the conversation

peace to you

 

I already pointed out that Y1 agreed that in the Genesis account Eve is assigned blame. Just because you don't see that, or evidently that Eve did utter something to Adam, doesn't make your assessments correct. But we cannot discuss this while you remain resistant to discussion.

You seem to want God to say things a certain way, but God doesn't always present his truth the way man demands. I'm not worried about trying to force you to see anything. But your trying to force me to your POV is fruitless, especially the way you are trying to go about it. How about just dropping it instead?

 

Adam though that he could be his own god though!

 

You keep accusing me of something that I am not guilty of. I am advocating no point of view except people who say "God says" should use scripture to back up their claims. You claim "God blamed Eve" and, whether Y1 agrees or not, you have provided NO Scripture to support your claim. All I have requested is for you to point where you see the Bible claiming what you say it does. It requires no complex discussion. I simply cannot read your mind to know what you base your opinion on. So I asked.

If you want the matter dropped, then stop responding.

 

Oy, I just looked back at the post (not yours) that preceded the exchange and how bizarre its arguments are. Anyway, from what others have said compared to what I have said, I still think you and I are talking about two entirely different points here, or else you just decided to pick a fight with me, which I find rather doubtful (which means I’m not accusing you of that). So, I’m done responding.

 

You had to RESPOND that.

(God Bless)

 

I don't actually think the blame for that belongs to the Hippies. If anything, the "free love - antiWAR" culture of the 1960-70's was more of a male con on women to "give it up" and a celebration of hedonism. I think the "glorifying of women" comes out of the Suffrage Movement, through "Rosie the Riveter" of WW2 and as an unintended consequence of the "War on Poverty" (which destroyed Black families and forced Black women both into the workplace and into "Head of Household" roles. With the "disposable families" of the late 20th Century, at least two generations grew up with no male role models except the "dad is a clown" role on TV. Then the schools jumped onboard to drug little boys with Ritalin until they were as innately compliant as little girls. Suddenly we find ourself in a world confused about Gender Roles and with Disney Princess Heroes.

I'll have to take your word for it. From my personal observation, the "machismo" of the Italian and Latin cultures is part of the problem. Men have forgotten how to be a Husband and a Father and a Priest of his Household and substituted being an adult boy or a petty dictator for protection and leadership. I read that the average "Christian" in the USA reads their Bible for 3 minutes per day. It shows in our families.

What "The Antichrist", there is no "Antichrist" in the Bible. The Bible talks about "antichrist(s)" with a small a ... Sorry, just a pet peeve.

1. Eschatology is mostly conjecture, so I pass.
2. What difference if the country is run by an unChristian Man or an unChristian Woman? Both will advance the cause of evil and everything will unfold according to the will of God.

[I thought it would be refreshing to get back to the OP]

 

What would Joe and Angie say about that kind of statement?

peace to you

 

I must admit, there was a time when I would have considered such jokes were funny.

Then I graduated high school.

peace to you

 

Just be candid. Are you wishing death toward me and my family?

peace to you
