Au contrairé Coco - thanks to Christianity. And I want fundamental human rights for all.

so Christianity is not sexist?
Good.
We agree.

And A true feminist is who? According to who?
(Don't bother answering)

that's where we disagree.
You give feminism your own definition because you want us to believe it has nothing to do with female empowerment/equality for reasons best known to you. And such reasons lack facts and reeks of sensationalism. No need restating them.

(It smacks of an underhanded attempt to sabotage the progress women have made over the years against oppressive cultures.
#my opinion.)

I could be wrong. Maybe your agenda is not to sabotage female social progress. maybe you're truly afraid some people out there are out to rob men of their manhood. (the sensationalism and conspiracy theorist things I'm talking about)

As always we get to the point where we don't agree and have to part ways so that you can concentrate on work and I on whatever it is I am doing right now.

Ciao



Hahaha

So you genuinely believe that the feminist question does not include male headship even after your sojourn to the West

Haha..epic


Social progress cannot be unmade
However male female dynamics still exist
I'm surprised everything I've said about the domestic arena still flies over your head

It's not sexist to me. I see leadership along with greater responsibility - and burden and accountability - assigned to men.

Feminism decries that, and views it as oppressive and misogynistic - "sexist" is a polite way of stating it from a feminist view.

So if you agree with me, then yes grin!

Women remain safest in marriage - I love saying that

LOL! I can't with you grin grin

I stand corrected in a sense - but it still develops with an instinctive - if broad - sense of right and wrong
Right or wrong that he/she learnt from his/her surrounding. No child inherently knows what is wrong or right, he/she learns from what he/she sees. As a toddler, the child's morality is influenced by his/her parent's beliefs or surroundings.

How do we agree on any laws if we can't ascertain an oblective morality (right vs. wrong)?

The only objective morality is individual selfishness. In fact, because of individual selfishness and subjective morality, that is why we have laws. If we all agree on morals, there will be no need to for laws or constitution, we will just need the justice system. Law makers use religion, culture, logic, random values etc which influences our moral system to draw up laws that govern us. Because family background, religion, mental prowess, and culture are not the same , we all cannot agree on morality. So we defer to majority and John Stuart Mill harm principle.

This is not hard for us as humans because we are social beings, so the longevity and safety of our community is paramount to us. We are ready to compromise for the greater good.
Since our morals are influenced by things that are not constant, our morals change and our laws also change. After a very long time of experimenting with something in the moral system and we see that it is definitely bad for humanity, we move it to the legal system. E.g: discrimination against women, discrimination against blacks, monarchy, tolerance of other religions, gay marriage etc. Soon, we will add animal rights, incest marriage etc.

Why did Apollo and Priscilla head the church?

Luke1:48 For he has looked on the humble state of his servant. For behold, all generation shall call me blessed.

Why should all generation including men call her blessed. Isn't that an adulation?

Apollo is not man, check the book of Acts, Corinthians and Timothy, Priscilla is always mentioned alongside her husband Aquila.

And as for Luke, How does all generations calling Mary blessed term as adulation. It's a sign of recognition as the mother of God, which came as a 'male'. In other words the beautitudes were adulations too?

The bible is sexist, 1st Cor 14:34-35 according to your NLT says:

Women should be silent during the church meetings. It is not proper for them to speak. They should be submissive, just as the law says.
If they have any questions, they should ask their husbands at home, for it is improper for women to speak in church meetings.

Job 31:11-12 New Living Translation (NLT)

11 For lust is a shameful sin,
a crime that should be punished.

12 It is a fire that burns all the way to hell. [ a ]
It would wipe out everything I own.


I hope you are asexual and keeping to this law! angry lipsrsealed grin

KJV can give people headache and it's not as amenable to sophistry as some of the more recent translations grin.

We all all equally heirs of grace, equal in a creational sense, but men are charged with leadership in the home and church - this should by some readings extend to civil leadership, but I'll leave that - feminism cannot abide any sense of being led by men.

Indeed they consider marriage oppressive to women and many would like it dismantled. It's clearly stated within the first few paragraphs of the wiki definition.


TV
That is indeed true @bold text.

Lol, KJV really does have that effect... one only needs be patient and willing to understand it's sophistry when compared to other versions.

Then, why are you judging feminists?

Which woman in the bible was submissive with the way 21st century men wants us to be.

I need an example of submissive biblical wife.
Esther was a submissive wife, Sarah was also... even Mary the mother of Jesus was a submissive wife.

Submissive here doesn't mean docile, mute, and given to taking orders.
Submissive means knowing their roles and deferring to the headship of the man. They did not try to usurp his authority at every slight opportunity.

Other examples of biblical submissive women include:
Rebecca
Rachael
Zipporah etc. etc.

Should I go on? grin

It is very deep and worrisome. This is actually satan's first attempt at usurping authority and giving power to women. His short term goal is to distrupt the family unit. When wives become insurbodinate to their husbands, children lose all sense of discipline and the family unit breaks down.

The long term goal is to distrupt human society and promote no sense of hierrarchy, loyalty, authority and order. So he seeks the financial and economic empowerment of women to make them independent of thier husbands amd the children follow eventually.

It is why feminist loby for control and not equality. they wamt to occupy the top and at the same time deny the representation of the lower spectrum of society where men alsp dominate.

It has been observed that most teen pregnancy occurs in single mother -daughter relationship.

also when a wife disrespects the husband, the children also disrespect her leading into the chaos and breakdown of the family unit which eventually spills into the larger society.

they are conspiracy theorists.
Even though some of them don't know they are.

I must have missed out on the meeting where some women and men gathered to discuss with the devil on how to ruin the world by seeking equality for women. grin

By that logic what keeps the world going is for women to remain under. Err. Tsk tsk.

Ok since we Christians believe the world will come to an end one day maybe feminists are actually doing God's work by helping speed up the destruction of the world. That sounds like a good inference based on good premise. No?

I dey ready for this bit.

Why did he make man the head in marraige? If God or jesus isn't sexist, why is there a head in marraige and why is he a man?

It boils down to your definition of 'head'

A man is the source of his family; Ideally, he decides to build a family and finds a wife himself/asks God or Satan (depending on his preference)

Like you wish to read a verse where it's stated that Mary was submissive? cheesy


Her actions and general regard for the authority and headship of her husband Joseph, is enough proof of her submissiveness.
The angel only appeared to Mary one time, and that was to inform her of her sacred duty to birth the Messiah.

Every other appearance by the angel was to Joseph - he would get the instructions and Mary would follow him without questions.
She regarded him as her leader and like a submissive woman, she followed him without doubting.

One belligerent and rebellious woman I can remember off the top of my head right now would be Queen Jezebel, Ahab's wife...and you should know how that ended for her.
Men can get away with being rebels (Moses for example), but hardly women - with respect to your signature tongue

So his headship continues after he's found the wife. Ok
IN the family/marriage, he is the head, according to you. Ok.

Why is he still the head after he's found his wife? What's wrong with two heads or the wife being the head?

Coz I'm sure a lot of thoughts must have gone into the decision making of giving the man the head role. Why was he the best choice ?

No one has been able to give me a clear answer. I asked stillfire she ran away. Maybe vickybee can help answer.

The Bible is not sexist. It took me years to get to This point too.

I could cope more with sexist men than a sexist God. I mean the men met it (can't fault them), But the person that actually put me There and then claims to love me?

Tuah!

Read and studied and put everything in context.

P.S.: I do not use KJV though. I use NLT.

I am very open to learning more from you on this issue.
