    My point is the undeniable historical authority of the male, pointing to an innate possession of this obligation, not that the male has always made the right decisions. Even among slaves, the males were always (in anything I've read) exhibiting authority over their female counterparts. I really don't see any logic in your sidetrack.

    Actually it is quite logical and I see you are so far unwilling to answer a simple question: Do you think that slavery is okay ?

    Can you prove this contention outside of the church or home?

    I don't think it is okay. But it has nothing to do with the God-ordained mandate of male authority. God ordained men to be in charge; he didn't ordain them never to make mistakes (e.g. slavery). Is this not plain enough for you?

    And C4K, if God doesn't even want a woman to have authority over her own husband, why would he ordain her to have authority over someone else's husband. It doesn't make any sense. It's not even a question logically.

    You are making a presumption here. This is a non sequitor, male - female relationships outside the home and church have nothing to do with God's biblically ordained roles. Please show me any Bible evidence against a woman boss or political leader.

    There is no Biblical evidence that a woman cannot be in authority over a man in a secular environment. If so Deborah would never have been a God ordained judge of Israel.

    Please name all the Queens of OT Israel. [​IMG]

    Can someone please prove to me that having a woman for President is NOT a women's libber (aka radical feminist) idea? If so, you may change my mind (though it is doubtful). [​IMG]

    I am many things, but one of them is definitely NOT a women's lib radical feminist.

    And, Roger, I'm not a male chauvinist.

    So the stereotypes some have implied on different posts don't seem to be applicable on this subject. [​IMG]

    Interesting poll.

    The gender of a candidate probably wouldn't be much of a consideration factor in a POTUS election. I remember a few years back when Elizabether Dole put her name in the hat. I'd have voted for her at the drop of that very same hat.
    Elizabether Dole is a conservative prolife born-again Christian all the way. She could never be considered a "women's libber" by any stretch. She put her name in as a candidate for President at the primary level.
    I have a fix-it ticket, issued to me by a female police officer, to prove it [​IMG]

    If scripture forbade me to allow her to have authority over me, then I committed a sin by signing the ticket.

    Oh, yes, I would've, too. May have to back peddle a little on my position, LOL.

    Oh, well, you know how we women are, apt to change our minds, LOL. [​IMG]

    But maybe that's another reason NOT to have a woman POTUS. :D

    Yes, men don't change their minds. They don't have to. The women do it for them [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Eve usurped Adam's authority by eating the fruit first and because of something in her nature she was deceived while Adam wasn't, and Adam knowingly followed her usurped leadership and brought sin into the world, and this is Paul talking, not me. Take it up with him. God designed the roles for man, and it didn't include taking orders from the woman. This innate principle is played normally not only throughout recorded Scripture but also throughout all human history with few exceptions. And I've never said a woman can't usurp the man's authority, but that she shouldn't.

    I agree with you here Bluefalcon. The Bible, in some cases, enters into some taboo areas of our society.

    I agree with the apostle Paul. I don't agree with your sexist, wrongheaded, eccentric, faulty interpretation of what the apostle Paul wrote.
