Unfortunatley, muslims see women as property-not human. I was invited to a muslim home for dinner one time. I was told not to speak, thank, look at or even acknowledge any woman at this home. When I sat down to eat, it was just the men-no women, or children. After we were done eating, then, the children at what was left. After that it was the wives turn. Wierd huh? |

Even here right in our own backyard, women are not seen as an equal but rather inferior. I was BOILING two Sundays ago in my SS class and our SS teacher said that women MUST submit to men and that anything of women's opinion is not important to the men and he was dead serious. Oh I let him have it!
I reminded him that Eve was taken from Adam's rib not to be above him or beneath him but to support him and to be protected by his arm. He just looked at me like I had grown four eyeballs and six ears. He said "it is black and white in the Bible, women must submit to their husbands." Then I said a woman shouldn't put up with all the crap and get little to no thanks in return for it. The women are always cooking the men their weekly breakfast at the church, when are the men gonna do something nice for the ladies outside of Mother's Day? If the ladies want to do something nice they have to get together in the women's ministry and do it themselves. I think if the men are going to get breakfast once a week then the men should be doing dinner for the ladies once a week as well. I told him I'm sick of this inferiority crap that women should submit and these desperate housewives are buying into it. It's not a 'worldly view' its one that Jesus would have accepted. Mary Magdalene was a woman and also His closest confidante. Now we have men pushing the women further and further away into the kitchen 'where she belongs'. This inferiority attitude. I then said what about Beth Moore? You claim she is not a preacher but a teacher. She studies the Bible, brings her interpretation and her lessons from it and shares it before a crowd that often contains men and women. The same damn thing a preacher does. The only reason she's not ordained is because she's got boobs and better plumbing, if I didn't know any better I'd say the men were jealous of her success. The only reason she's not going a step further is because if she does she loses her financial backing for her ministry. Needless to say I ruffled some feathers and I've not been back since.

He forget that men has to do their share by hunting for food and bringing it back home for wives to cook. Men were the hunter-gatherer and Women were the food processor. Men and Women are mutually dependent on each other to survive. In modern time - men have to go to grocery and buy all the foods for wives to cook. If men make women do the food gathering and cooking... they are the weak and they wouldn't pass the Survival of Fittest test.

One can say that men were providing women the means of gathering food because men work full-time and women are full-time housewife. But as long as men and women are mutually dependent on each other and do their fair shares of jobs... that's ok. but based on Dixie's post... I can see that that man is useless and does a very little work.

And the one thing I don't understand is why men don't know how to take care of themselves like cleaning, cooking and paying the bills? They could have live on their own without women except to date women. Men don't need to depend on women to be their slaves. That is really horrible. Women have been taking care of themselves for years without men except to date men. But men seem not know how to handle being single or being bachelors. My father is the same way like them. He can not handle being alone and had married 5 times. That is what puzzle me. There is something wrong with this picture.

How do you know that? How do you know about the faith anyone has unless they tell you about it?
The fatwa they carried out was a combination of man-made religion and their culture. If it were just their religion, then followers of that religion would do the same thing, worldwide. But they don't, so it's also a strong cultural influence. |

Anything the women's ministry does is usually very expensive or it's conflicting with my work schedule. But then again why bother getting involved anyway? From what I hear there's a lot of backstabbing and cat fighting amongst this "fellowship". Not only that I'm very different from the others. I'm a single parent, I don't have a lot of money, I'm a closet homosexual, I don't like shiny prissy things. I'm more raw than them. I drink, I smoke, I curse, I tell it like it is. It's just me and I believe I rub a lot of people the wrong way sometimes. I dunno, I just feel awkward most of the time yet I would feel even more out of place elsewhere. I have rededicated but I feel like nothing's changed really. My pastor hit the nail on the head when he said people don't go to church to find God, they go to church to find friends. Thing is I don't 'fellowship' with other members. I'm just there. A warm body. Maybe it's time I break from the SBC??

![]() Our church has a weekday morning prayer time for the men, too. They get doughnuts from Krispy Kreme or biscuits from Bo Jangles, and the church serves coffee. The men take care of themselves. The focus is supposed to be on the prayer time, not the eating time. (My opinion.) "What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not." I Corinthians 11:22 I'm not familiar with WOM or WMU. There are plenty of ministries for men and women at our church. Also, members are welcome to create new ministries. Hubby and I have done that. We saw a need in the church, and volunteered to take care of it. Quote:

Reba, What about Jews? Jesus was a Jewish. So what is the big deal about that? Why against Jewish people that have to suffer under Christian rule? It does not make sense like that. Should have left us alone as this is our culture. No one should tell us to convert to their religion just because someone oppose different religion.
