Our TV Show preferences sound very similar. I'll swap out "Married with Children" for "Duck Dynasty" and "Street Outlaws" for "Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe" haha. I've seen several "In the Heat of the Night" episodes. My favorite is when a large criminal bends down to pickup his gun that he...

I weigh the good vs the bad and see if the movie/TV show will result in Godly growth or not. That said, there are some things in movies that the wife and I view as never acceptable. If it's a one-off then the one not tempted by it will fast forward through it. If the movie is rife with it we...

Yes, different people, no problem haha. We have better BBQ in Western NC :Biggrin than in Georgia, which I think is where Reynolds is.

I think you may be confusing me with Reynolds, but I will forgive you comparing a Firefighter to LEO haha. The "command authority" is the only parallel I can think of to God's hierarchy. It won't be a 1 for 1 comparison, but it's the best comparison. No major gripes with any of that, agree...

Men and women are part of an undeniable hierarchy, and protestations can do nothing to alter God's hierarchy. A man cannot command a woman to do anything. A man can teach a woman and in matters of teaching God has made plain that men are of higher rank than women. A husband on the other hand...

I'm not linking to the article here as there is a satanic video of a girl my daughter's age being walked around the drag show at the bar by a topless male wearing fake rubber mammaries. Never thought I'd say that sentence in my life. DeSantis ordered the Florida Department of Business and...

Speaking for myself... What do you mean by "less than"? If you mean less than as in an inferior RANK in matters of spiritual teaching, then that's correct. A colonel's scope of command is less than a general's scope of command. Paul makes it plain that the older women's scope of command...

I agree 100% with the cooling off period prior to voting. I've thought that the first generation of immigrants from another state ought not be able to vote in their new state, otherwise New York could flood a state like mine (NC) and change everything in 5 years.

Not a full separate country, but a full throated return of Jeffersonian Federalism would be extremely beneficial. For example, Gay folk pretending their married being allowed in 1 state, but not in other states would be good. Then folk move to whatever state they prefer rather than the current...

I wasn't aware of that. That raises my estimation of her quite a bit

Here's a good equivalent

It's amazing how you are able to add nothing to a conversation without throwing around personal attacks. That's typically a sign that your position is built on sand and is quickly sinking. Myself and Reynolds have posted multiple verses in support of our position. We have respected Bible...

Reynolds pretty much put words to my view on that verbatim. Especially Seminary vs Non-Seminary. In a general college I'd likely be fine with it as an individual case. I don't see an issue with a smart woman, with no other wifely/motherly duties, and with knowledge of a subject like grammar...

I asked my wife's thoughts on this. Here's some good wisdom from her IMO: "If a woman is developing a curriculum, and is being honest and Biblical, she should only be developing it for women from the get-go. If a man happens to learn lessons from this kind of curriculum in passing, then it...

I've always seen that verse as Aquilla and Priscilla taking aside Apollos in the "parking lot" after Worship Service and correcting an error using the method that we are told to correct Brothers and Sisters in Peter. R.C Sproul, being a Presbyterian, had a joke about that particular verse by...

I am well aware of that. There is no difference at all. Hence my original comment: Just because a woman isn't in-person teaching her thoughts doesn't mean a woman has not assumed authority over men. The test isn't "Is there a woman present in the room teaching?". The test is "Are the...

But you will find the following in the Bible, which clearly shows that a woman should not be teaching. God does not restrict that to the pulpit as in the position of a Pastor, but to all teaching within the Church, Sunday School included. "Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection...

The godly woman is free to use her curriculum to teacher other women, and to teach children as God commands. She is not free to teach her curriculum to other men as God commands her not to. Following God's orders is not creating an idol.

Recent book I picked up as I thought it would be interesting and fits my social/economic views very well. It's published by Christian publisher Canon Press. The subtitle for the book is "How Bulgarian Greens, Swedish Housewives, and Beer-Swilling Englishmen Created Family-Centered Economies -...

I would go with my default of "Sir", which goes for any male I come across, even some younger than me if their honor is sufficient. For Catholics I would not use "Father" in any circumstance. "Brother", "Pastor" or "Reverend" could be used if I see fruit of regeneration after a relationship...
