Religion’s longest running victims. Women. Here we are in civilized and enlightened societies and cultures in high tech times and we are not smart enough to recognize that the world will continue in strife as long as we men do not give women full equality as a minimum to what men should do towards the care of families. I hope you are astute enough to see this. If you do nothing then you know not what duty to your family should be. The women in your family deserve to be first class citizens. Men are maintaining God’s curse against women. He will rule over you. Men. Christians, Catholics and Muslims. Free your women. It’s time. Man up. Please. Regards DL
Women and men are different. By saying women need to do everything a man does is to say women have no inherent dignity. Some of the greatest Chrsitian saints are women. Salvation came into the world through a woman (the one every generation will call Blessed). Women participate uniquely in God's creative action of new life.
Saying something like maintaining gods curse gives away how you really think. I bet you dont do as you say, just preach to others to do. Female is the base model for humans, male happens when the hormones start and everything goes out of whack.....explains all this friggin body hair
No one said that they had to. What I did say, basically, is that He shall rule over you, which is what most mainstream religions teach, --- or we would not be here talking about this, --- takes dignity away from women and that that is unjust. Do you agree? Regards DL
one shiny picture. they only included Mary as a bigger part of Catholocism because it appealled to people of other religions. she's still considered human and less holy than jesus or god.
She was a one night stand. The flood was a direct result of the Sons of God using the earth as a brothel. Like son's like father. He cuckolded Joseph then did like all deadbeat dads. Poof and he was gone in a ball of sexual sweat. Quite the God that. Regards DL
You could also just get rid of 'most mainstream religions', then you'd never have to retrain what they teach
Well considering Jesus is God, yes "less holy", but unique in all humanity. Mary os, properly, not a Catholic thing, but a Christian thing. Protestants removed her from a position of honor. Marian devotion has been traced at the latest, a Coptic liturgy document from AD 250. How exactly does the Church hate women?
If Jesus is God then he cannot die and therefore there was no sacrifice. If you believe he was your scapegoat you might consider how happy that makes Satan. How will you get yourself into heaven? On your own merit or via a scapegoat? Revisit substitutionary atonement or vicarious redemption and scapegoating with me just to refresh your memory. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNtBkOXItqw I am not an atheist but Satan and Christians want atheists to embrace barbaric human sacrifice and the notion that we should profit from punishing the innocent instead of the guilty. Scapegoating IOW. In reality, if God did demand such a barbaric sacrifice, he would be sinning as we all know that it is immoral to kill the innocent. God knows this yet Christians do not seem to. You do. Right? Those with good morals will know that no noble and gracious God would demand the sacrifice of a son just to prove it's benevolence. When you die, Satan will ask you; how was your ticket to heaven purchased? With innocent blood? If and when you say yes, you become his. ----------------------------------- The other option in scriptures, a moral one, is shown here. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Scriptures indicate that God prefers repentance to sacrifice and as God’s will is supreme and cannot be thwarted, this will come to pass. --------------------------------- It is a special distorted Christian view of love that sees, --- as the greatest act of love possible, --- their God condemning them, and then turning and demanding his son’s deaths and thus corrupting God's perfect justice. A bribe set by God as judge himself for himself. This is of course ridiculous. Christians have an insane view of love, IMO. Would you express your love for humanity or those you love by having your own child needlessly murdered? Or if convinced that a sacrifice was somehow good, would you have the moral fortitude to step up yourself to that cross instead of sending your child? Your cowardly God did not. Regards DL
How is being against contraception anti-women? I thought it took two to tango. What other population is told to take "medicine" to stop their body from working properly? What device in use, other than a condom, tells women I only want your body for pleasure; I cannot respect what your body does and is for. Humanae Vitae made some predictions about what would happen if contraception became widely used. Here is a shorter article about that, and if you would grace me with the time, here is a longer article. (I fully believe in reprricocity and will read an article if you ask me to.) That and the Pill can also be properly understood as an abortifacient, which brings us to: Re: abortion, life, and coice Does it trouble you that women are more likely to be aborted? How do you reconcile this with your worldview? How can a child in utero at once be legally killed by a doctor but illegally killed when his or her morther is murdered? The cognitive dissonance is outstanding. When exactly does it become illegal to kill a baby? Do you know who I see perpetrate a war on women: those that objectify their sexuality and bodies. It is the culture that bans this on social media and in the public square because it is vulgar, offensive, and pornographic; but accepts this.
And that is exactly the point. Religious fanatics see women as second-class human beings best to be used as breeding machines. One god. One purpose. Sucks dunnit?
No. Genesis 3 and the consequences of sin can be read more properly as pronouncements of consequences rather than God causing the consquences. Taken as a "just so" story, it seeks to explain the world the Hebrew authors were living in. They saw men dominating women because of sin, recognized this as not God's ideal, and the ideal was fulfilled in christ as proclaimed by Paul (neither male nor female). Ephesians 5:21-33: Most of what is stated is how a husband should treat his wife. Verse 21 says to submit to one another. Verse 25 tells us husbands that we need to die (fguratively and if it comes to it literally) for our wives.
Yeps, fanatics suck. Wether they are catholic, muslim, atheist or gnostic The art is to realize religion is not just the fanatic extremist part that we are often confronted with.
No one said best use or only use except you.People do not have uses, they have purposes and each human person should be afforded the dignity of having their whole body respected. This is something contraception doesn't do as per my points above.
