>Some people who hear the voice of God are in mental institutions.
>Most aren't and a perfectly sane.
Where do you get this info from? I have conversed with ppl who hear the
voice of god and anti psychotic medication fixes this. If they were
really hearing the voice of god no amount of medication would affect them.
What does god have to say to these ppl? Well, he says 'in order to be pure
you must not eat' (2 patients in the psych hosp i was workign in. What
else - women are the cause of all evil..... (some of cause do not need any
encouragement to believe this - see afghanistan)
>Paul wasen't sexist
oh come on!
it's just that some people who claim to be
>Christians and Christians who have received incorrect teaching or are
>confused about what Paul said like to justify mistreatment of women
*********************
>by quoting these verses.
>There is no excuse for mistreatment or degredation of women nor does
*************************************
Is it just me or are these sentences patronising and objectifying women.
It's very nice that you think we should be treated well, just like your
cattle or any other possession.
>the Bible advocat such.
but paul does.
>What the Bible does say is that men are supposed to be ultimately
>responsible in families and in general leadership.
And in your opinion this is not sexist? This disempowers women - can you
see this?
Unfortunately
>most men either don't accept or live up to this. Also a lot of men
>misuse and abuse this position of responsibility.
I really feel like swearing now. this is very annoying. i hope you don't
think your views are feminist?
>The Bible says we are to love our wives as we love ourselves
meaning that the bible is written to and for men!
and when

and what if you are a woman? or dont women count?
after that not

>Finally self.
and this is what causes so many problems and a lack of responsiblity for
oneself.
He (paul)was so passionate about his faith that he did his utmost
>to eradicate Christians whereever he could find them. The only thing
>that could stop him was a direct confrontation with Jesus Christ.
>After this he bacame as passionate about Jesus as he had been about
>Judaism.
yes, hes a fanatic. why does that make him any good?
>The Bible does not advocate homophobia. It does condemn
>homosexuality
As you say that it condemns homosexuality what do you think is going to be
the result? Homophobia is a natural result if you believe this biggotted
book. AS is the oppression of women from that order earlier.
